Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade’s 7-month-old daughter Kaavia James has a personality that’s earned her the nickname “shady baby,” but she’s also an exact replica of her Father. In all of their cute family moments shared on Instagram, Wade literally melts at the sight of his baby girl, and even though she can’t talk just yet, we can see the feeling is mutual.

Union told ESSENCE that at only a few months old, baby Kaavia is already showing classic signs of a Scorpio. In addition to having very particular taste, mom says, “She does not do baby talk.
