‘Growing Up Right Before Our Eyes’: Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade’s Daughter Kaavia Is Talking and Fans Feel Old

Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade‘s one-year-old daughter Kaavia James Union-Wade is starting to talk up a storm and fans are ready to hear what she has to say!

The “Being Mary Jane” actress shared a video of herself and her baby girl having a little chat during bath time. In the cute post, Union tries her best to get Kaavia to say “Mom, I love you” but instead the little cutie decided to do her own thing right around the “love” portion.

“Look whose talking!!!!! @kaaviajames CAN say “love” but she flat out refuses to say it,” writes the “Welcome to the Party” author. “Thats my baby🤣👶🏾 Ohhh we are in for ITTTTT @dwyanewade !!!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️#curlsforthegirls #FlawlessBaby.”

The adorable youngest child in the Union-Wade family has gained a following of her own in her one year on Earth, thanks to her relatable expressions that have earned her the affectionate nickname “Shady Baby“. Not only does she already have her own Instagram page, but chances are that with 1.3 million followers, she’s also already more of an influencer than you or me.

Fans cracked up over Ms. Kaavia’s personality. They viewed the video over 823,000 times and dropped plenty of comments about how they look forward to continuing to watch her grow.

“😂😭🤣 the way sis’ decided to create a word instead of sayin love i stan 😩,” gushed a follower.

“Omg…She’s growing up right before our eyes,” another noticed.

“Lol she’s her own little person!” exclaimed a third.

“Sweetest shady baby ever! ❤️👶🏽❤️👶🏽,” wrote a fourth.

“Can’t wait to hear her arguments😍😍😍,” a fifth fan noted.

The Wades welcomed their “miracle baby” Kaavia on Nov. 7, 2018, via surrogate. In her memoir “We’re Going To Need More Wine,” Union opened up about her struggles to get pregnant and multiple miscarriages in the years leading up to Kaavia’s birth. Since Kaavia joined their lives, the family has documented her developments and shared them regularly with fans. She even has her own Instagram account: @kaaviajames.
