Will and Cara welcomed Charlotte the following October.

“Happy birthday to the happiest, most curious, most attentive, stubborn, goofy and loving little girl,” Cara wrote via Instagram on Charlotte's first birthday last year. “There are no words to describe how incredible this year has been. From leaving the hospital thinking “What do we do now?” to watching you grow before our eyes… Now we just wish that time wouldn't pass so quickly, but since it does, let's leave it all absorb into ourselves.”

Charlotte has been a fixture at Papa Will's Dodgers games since birth. (The MLB catcher was drafted by the LA team in 2016.)

Cara and Charlotte were both there when Will and the Dodgers won the National League Championship Series earlier this month and then secured a spot in the upcoming World Series.

“We’re going to the WORLD SERIES✨🧢⚾️👏🏼💙” Cara wrote via Instagram on Monday, October 21st.

The championship series between the Dodgers and New York Yankees begins on Friday, October 25 in Los Angeles. It is currently unknown whether Cara and newborn Layton will take part in the debut game – there are seven in total in the series – as it will take place three days after the infant's birth.
