Moore and her husband, Taylor Goldsmith, announced the birth of their baby daughter on Sept. 25 in a joint Instagram post. The couple also shares sons August "Gus," 3, and Oscar "Ozzie," 23 months.

"Lou is here! Louise Everett Goldsmith arrived happy, healthy, expeditiously and right in time for Virgo season," Moore captioned the post. "She is our absolute dream girl and her big brothers are already as obsessed with her as we are. Endlessly grateful for our family of 5 (and our very own big three) and soaking in every moment of this special time. 💓💓💓."

Two days later, the Walk to Remember star shared a few more glimpses of life with Louise in a carousel post with the caption, "One week with our Lou 💓💓💓💓💓."

In the images, the proud parents and their two sons cozied up next to the baby and posed in front of a "welcome home baby Lou" sign at their front door. Gus even gave his new sister a sniff on the head in one snap — adorably telling his mom that Louise "smells like honey."

The day after Moore shared her sweet skin-on-skin selfie with her daughter, she posted a heartfelt tribute to her husband, 39, on Instagram, calling him a "super dad, super husband, super partner."

The post featured a series of candid family photos, from snaps of Goldsmith hanging out with their boys to a touching shot of him reading to his newborn daughter as she snuggled on his bare chest.

"He does all the things and I’m so grateful. Entertaining two active toddlers and working like crazy (@dawestheband has an INCREDIBLE new album out on Friday), while I stay home with Lou is a rather exhausting feat and you make it look so easy," Moore wrote.

"Can’t imagine doing this with anyone else," she added. "Thank goodness for you, T. 🩷🩷🩷🩷."
