Little Grace Annette Duggar hasn't been in the world for long, but she's already formed an adorable bond with her mom, Abbie Duggar. Grace is the Counting On star's first child with her husband, John David Duggar, and it took no time for Abbie to warm up to being a mom.
Since her daughter's birth in January, Abbie hasn't posted too many photos of Grace, preferring to keep their lives relatively private, but the pictures she has shared over the past few months are so sweet. Plus, they totally show what a mama's girl little Gracie already is. Here are 16 times Abbie and Gracie's mother-daughter bond was unbreakable.
Almost here
Family of three
"I think our hearts have grown 10 sizes!" the new parents captioned this cute family pic. Grace is Abbie and John David's first child, and if John David is anything like the rest of his family, many more children will probably follow. But there's nothing like the feeling of holding one's very first baby to send a thrill through the whole body. They look overjoyed.
TLC debut
The Duggar family will always be a special part of the TLC family, so it was only right that Gracie make a TLC video debut shortly after her birth. Abbie and John David brought their bundled up little one in front of the cameras so they could talk about the significance of her name.
"Abbie said she liked the name Grace and that's Abbie's middle name," John David revealed. "My mom's middle name is Annette. Grace Annette sounded like it went together, so it was about that easy."
Posing for mommy
On February 7, Abbie celebrated her daughter's one-month anniversary of being born with a sweet photo. We can just see Abbie behind the camera, quietly clicking away so as not to wake her sleepy girl. "We love our little Gracie girl!" she wrote in the photo's caption. It's hard not to love a baby that adorable.
Target trip
The best mother-daughter bonds are forged at Target, and Abbie is starting Gracie off young. We're not sure what the two bought, but clearly shopping had Grace all tuckered out. She literally shopped until she dropped. "Love my little shopping buddy," Abbie wrote about the sweet photo.
Missing the family
Grace has a ton of uncles, aunts, and cousins, plus a loving grandma and grandpa, and she got to meet a bunch of them back in February when she was just about 2 months old. She's snuggled up in mama's arms sleeping for the photo, but maybe just because it was a long day of getting to know all her loving family members.
Big smile
We can guess why Abbie is smiling so big in this photo — her mom must be on the other side of the camera! The new mama doesn't share a ton of pics of her little one, but based on what we've seen so far, Grace seems like a total mama's girl, and we love that. She really is her mom's little ray of sunshine.
