Joy-Anna Duggar’s daughter, Evelyn Mae, is now 2 weeks old and the family is getting used to having two young kids to care for. However, it appears they are all settling in pretty well so far. The Counting On star shared a couple more photos on Instagram of her son, Gideon, 2, and husband, Austin Forsyth, spending some special time with the new baby.
Joy-Anna’s new photos — which were shared on Friday and show the men in her life cuddling with the newborn — have seemingly melted the hearts of her 1 million Instagram followers, who have liked the new photo set over 86,000 times.
The first snapshot featured Gideon holding his little sister in his lap. She laid down with her eyes open and her head turned away from her brother. The blond-haired Duggar grandson looked a bit smitten as he gazed down at her. He had one arm around Evelyn and had a big smile. A pillow sat under the baby’s head to help support her.
Gideon wore blue rain boots with his cute gray outfit. He had his thumb in his mouth, as if he wasn’t sure what to think about the little human in front of him. Evelyn had on a pair of white printed pajamas with little pink ballerina booties strapped over the feet of the outfit. Her little hands were covered as well.
The second Instagram snap showed Austin holding his daughter in his arms as she slept soundly. She faced forward so Joy-Anna’s followers could see her full face. Austin rested his chin gently on the top of his daughter’s head. A few fans mentioned how tired he looked in the picture. They also thought that Evelyn looked very much like her daddy, just as Gideon does.
“The Forsyth genes are even stronger than the Duggar genes lol,” one fan observed.
“They both look so much like Austin wow,” a second person wrote.
“You should’ve named her Austina,” joked a third fan.
“Gideon looks over the moon with her!” remarked a fourth admirer.
On Thursday, Austin shared the first snapshot of his son and daughter together while at home. The little boy looked happy and seemingly proud to be a big brother as he sat with Evelyn on his lap.
The Forsyth family had previously expressed their excitement over meeting their little girl and are now enjoying spending these special moments with her, as seen in the photos.
