Sofia Richie recently gave fans a sweet peek into her life as a new mom, sharing a photo of her and husband Elliot Grainge’s 4-month-old daughter, Eloise. In an Instagram Story posted on October 11, Sofia captured a heartwarming moment—a close-up of Eloise’s tiny toes—along with the message, “I hope you have a great day.”
Sofia is completely smitten with her baby girl, and she isn’t the only one. Her father, Lionel Richie, can’t stop doting on his granddaughter either. In a recent interview with *E! News*, the music legend joked about his “problem” of being completely enamored with Eloise. “You know that stage where the baby’s leg is like a little drumstick? I just can’t keep my mouth off it!” he said playfully. “Blowing on her tummy and seeing her smile is the best.”
Sofia, 26, and Elliot, 30, welcomed Eloise on May 20, announcing her arrival with a tender photo of the couple holding their newborn’s feet. In the caption, Sofia wrote, “The best day of my life.”
Since then, Sofia has kept her daughter’s face off social media, explaining her decision to set some boundaries as a new mom. “Now, as a mom, I think I’ll create some more boundaries,” she shared. Prioritizing her role as a mother, Sofia explained how parenting now comes first. “If I have to go to fashion week, she’s coming with me. If she can’t, then I won’t be able to make it,” she told *The Wall Street Journal* in August.
Life has certainly changed for the organized, type-A influencer. “I’ve always been very scheduled and clean, but having a baby throws all of that out the window,” Sofia admitted, adding, “I’ve learned I’m more flexible than I thought.”
From sunny outings to designer baby clothes, Sofia has been sharing glimpses of her mom life with Eloise while keeping many moments private. In a sweet August Instagram post, she cuddled her daughter, and in July, she shared a photo of Eloise in a baby pink outfit with angel wings. One thing is for sure: Sofia is soaking up every precious moment with her little girl.
