In one photo, Cardi, whose real name is Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, held her baby boy while standing in front of a beautifully decorated Christmas tree. Wave appeared seated on a toy polar bear, watching as his sister Kulture carried Blossom, who was crying in the shot. Cardi also posted individual pictures of Kulture posing near the tree, along with solo snaps of Wave and Blossom.
"The perfect Christmas picture don't exist in this house," Cardi joked in her caption, adding emojis to capture the chaos and love of family life.
The rapper welcomed her youngest son in November, marking her first child with boyfriend Stefon Diggs, 32. Cardi shares her three older children with her estranged husband Offset, 33. She first introduced her newborn to fans on November 19 through Instagram, posting photos of herself cradling him in a nursery while wearing a New England Patriots cap and onesie, a nod to Diggs' NFL team. She also shared a hospital photo featuring herself, Diggs, and their baby shortly after birth, captioning the post with "11/4," which appears to be the baby's birthday.
A few days later, Cardi revealed a unique keepsake: a portion of her umbilical cord cast into gold. The piece, created by Mommy Made Encapsulation, was shaped like a heart and dipped in gold chrome.
Cardi's son arrived just in time for the holidays. She and Diggs celebrated Thanksgiving by dressing him in a fuzzy white outfit with Diggs' name and jersey number in glittery gold. Cardi also posted clips of her older children, including a moment where Blossom cried while trying to walk. In another selfie, she admitted, "No family picture cause everyone on their worst behavior," joking that even her newborn was acting up.
Recently, Cardi shared a sweet Instagram Story of her baby cuddled on her shoulder, writing, "My cuddle buddy. I love him soooo much."
