Michael Phelps and his wife Nicole announced that their third child, another son, was born in September 2019, and we couldn't be more excited for their little growing family (all the photos of him have been adorable so far). In addition to their youngest, Michael and Nicole are parents to two older boys — all three boys have been born within about three years of each other! — so things are about to get very interesting in the Phelps home.
Meet their three boys — who look so much alike! — ahead, and see some of the family's cutest photos.
Boomer Robert Phelps
Born on May 5, 2016, Boomer is Michael and Nicole's firstborn son. At just 3 months old, Boomer got to see his dad swim at the Summer 2016 Olympics before his retirement. He might not remember it, but when he's older, he'll definitely realize how cool his dad is!
On Boomer's fourth birthday, Nicole shared a gallery of throwback birthday photos, writing: "Happy 4th Birthday Boomer 🎉🎈 You amaze me everyday with your intelligence and talents. Each birthday has brought so much love and laughter, I can't wait to see what today brings 🥰 I'll dig dinosaur bones up with you, ride bikes on the track, bake, paint, sing & dance all you want."
Beckett Richard Phelps
The middle Phelps child, Beckett, was born on Feb. 12, 2018. The first photo that Michael shared of his second son was too cute for words, as it featured Nicole and an excited Boomer who was meeting his baby brother for the first time.
On his third birthday, Nicole shared a sweet Instagram snap, writing: "Bacon Beckett you make us laugh, you make us think, you challenge us all to listen to the music in our hearts! May you always want to read books and March to the beat in your heart 💙 Beckett Land is so amazing thank you for sharing it with us everyday."
Maverick Nicolas Phelps
Born on Sept. 9, 2019, Maverick is the youngest Phelps boy and the first to be given a name that doesn't start with B! On his Instagram birth announcement, Michael wrote: "Family of 5! Welcome @mavericknphelps to the world! Born 9-9-19. Mama and baby are healthy and the boys are pumped to be big bros!" So cute!
On his first birthday, Nicole shared a sweet photo of Maverick with the caption: "My sweet lil bean, Happy First Birthday 🥰 you've done nothing but warm our hearts and make us laugh. I can't believe you're already walking, talking with a gruff voice, loving blueberries & blackberries at every meal and the blender is your favorite sound. I can only imagine what another year with you will be like." Michael added on his own account: "Happy bday mav! Walking and talking by 1... wonder what 2 will bring😂😂."
