Heather Rae El Moussa is in awe at her baby's growth!

The American television personality recently expressed surprise at how fast her boy is growing as he approaches his 3-month milestone. Since the real estate investor and her husband, Tarek El Moussa, welcomed their son, Tristan, in January 2023, she has been documenting her motherhood journey on social media, sharing adorable pictures of her little one.

The reality TV star, still basking in the joy of motherhood, took to her Instagram to share a throwback picture of a family portrait of herself, her beau, and their tiny tot. The father-of-three wore his signature black polo t-shirt and a wristwatch and held the actress from behind.

She wore a white blouse and cradled their swaddled newborn in her arms as they smiled at the camera. In the caption, the former model shared her thoughts about time passing by so quickly, writing:

"Hard to believe he's almost 3 months old…. Looking at how little he is here and thinking, where does the time go ?. Soaking in every baby moment, big and little, with our Tristan Jay❤️."

In the comments, fans showered the small family with love and encouragement. One user called the baby boy "Sweet," adding, "It is beautiful to see your family happy and thriving! ❤️." 

This person pointed out that the little boy and his father shared similar chins, while another admirer added, "It is simply the best feeling… enjoy every last minute!" A fourth gushed, "OMG. Look at that adorable face. Sure helps when Mama and Papa are gorgeous. Wishing y'all lots of joy and blessings."

Not too long ago, the blonde beauty shared a series of heartwarming pictures, capturing the precious moments with her little one from the first time she held him in her arms at the hospital to his exciting first day in the pool.

Starting her caption with "POV: you have a front-row seat to the best view in the whole wide world ??," Heather elaborated how becoming a mother has transformed her perspective and made her cherish even the tiniest moments in life.

Although she already has experience as a stepmom to her husband's children, Taylor and Brayden, she shared that raising a baby had opened up a whole new world to her. The former "Playboy Playmate of the Month" also noted that she was relishing every moment and emphasized that it had brought a change of pace to her life. Heather went on to state:

"My days used to be so go go go and so glam, but I'm enjoying the more down-to-earth moments recently- And I just still can't believe he's ours ? balance." 

The popular couple, known for their design skills and house flipping, enjoyed the beautiful moments of parenthood since their little one's arrival in January. The Blast observed that they devoted themselves fully to their new roles, as evidenced by their social media post.

The "Love in the Time of Monsters" actress and her beau shared snapshots of an intimate moment as they bathed their newborn baby. Dressed in a casual black outfit and a messy bun, she held Tristan's hands and kissed his forehead tenderly.

Wearing a fuzzy cheetah-print robe in the following slide, she held his head while Tarek gently rinsed him off. After the bath, the doting mother swaddled their little bundle of joy in a warm, snug blanket and cuddled him close to her chest.

The "Selling Sunset" star wrote in the caption alongside the post, "Mommy & daddy loving every moment with our baby ?. Tristan is still unsure if he likes bath time, but he loves being snuggled up in his cozy robes… just like mama ?."

Fans showered Heather with admiration in the comments section, with many praising Heather's relatability. One user noted how they appreciated seeing her "life as a new mom," while another liked that she kept her posts real by "sharing real-life photos," glammed up or not.

Other followers described her as an "amazing mommy," and a fourth could not contain their excitement, writing, "OMGGG GOD HE IS SO BEYOND PRECIOUS ❤️❤️SO SWEET ❤️❤️."
