Leighton Grace is 1 year old!
The newest addition to the Maddie & Tae family is celebrating her first birthday. Last year, Taylor Kerr and her husband, Josh Kerr, announced that their firstborn child had arrived early, on January 17, 2022, weighing 2 pounds, 5 ounces. The Kerrs gushed at the time that Leighton Grace is “beautiful, strong and everything we have ever dreamed of. she decided to be a Capricorn like her daddy. we already can’t wait for the day we get to finally take her home 💜.” Leighton Grace spent 53 days in the NICU before the proud parents brought her home, thanking the “amazing NICU nurses and staff along the way.”
Since Leighton Grace arrived home, her parents shared adorable family photos, enjoyed their first holidays together (Taylor said she planned to spend her first Mother’s Day as a mom snuggling with her baby), and even bringing baby Leighton on the road as Maddie & Tae traveled for the “CMT Next Women of Country Tour Presents: All Song No Static Tour.”
Maddie & Tae — the award-winning country duo made up of Taylor and Maddie Font — shared an adorable reel on Instagram on Tuesday (January 17) as a tribute to Leighton Grace’s first birthday. Though she “wasn’t too sure about her first birthday cake,” she enjoyed a sweet celebration complete with balloons, treats, a cute bow and more. See how Leighton celebrated her first birthday here:
