The Game is soaking up quality time with his baby boy.
Earlier today, the rapper shared a few adorable photos with his 7-month-old son, Blaze Taylor. In the first snapshot, The Game is seen cradling Blaze in one arm while capturing a mirror selfie with the other. The second shows a full-length look at the father-son duo, while the third photo features little Blaze adorably holding his dad’s phone.
“Daddy’s home,” The Game captioned the post.
Fans were quick to flood the comments with love for the rare peek at the pair. “He’s perfectttttt,” one fan wrote.
Another chimed in, “He look like Justice in the last pic.” A third fan simply said, “Those eyes.”
Baby Blaze is The Game’s son with Shaniece Hairston. Last month, Hairston celebrated the her son’s 6-months-milestone with an Instagram post:
“Happy 6 mos to the most beautiful boy I’ve ever laid eyes on.”
Hairston’s mom, television personality Evelyn Lozada, is also cherishing her role as a first-time grandmother. “This little blue-eyed angel made me a grandma, and I’m forever grateful! You’ve brought so much joy into my life that words can’t even explain. I love you more than anything, Blaze Taylor!” she wrote in December.
Though Blaze is now making appearances on social media, his parents were initially hesitant to share him with the world. In an interview with Life & Style Weekly, Shaniece opened up about the decision to keep Blaze’s life more private during his first few months.
“[His] Dad and I aren’t ready yet to do that. I mean, we will be eventually—we’re just not ready right now. We are very, very protective over our child. And I kind of dealt with enough scrutiny when I was pregnant, when I got—when I aired my pregnancy, that I don’t want that for my child. Not at this moment in time. He’s so small,” she said.
Shaniece continued, “We can’t hide him forever, but I don’t know—we just want to love on him and protect him. And, you know, with social media, there’s so many different energies going around.”
