Patrick Mahomes is celebrating his daughter on her special day.
On Tuesday, the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, 28, shared a series of photos to his Instagram in celebration of his daughter Sterling Skye as she turned 3 years old.
Posting pictures from Sterling’s botanical birthday party over the weekend, the toddler smiles and jumps around, posing with mom Brittany Mahomes, 28, in a sweet shot.
“Happy 3rd birthday Sterling Skye! You are my 💙! Stop growing up so fast!!” Patrick wrote in his caption.

“Happy Birthday to my Sterling Skye! ✨ You made me a Mama and it was one of the greatest moments of my life!” the Kansas City Current co-owner wrote.
“You my girl are the brightest little girl and make every day nothing short of beautiful! 🤍 You’re three, where did the time go?😅🥹.”
On Sunday, Brittany and Patrick shared a joint video on their respective Instagram accounts of Sterling’s third birthday party ahead of her big day.
The little girl wore a pink dress with a red flower print as she went down a slide, bounced around and hugged her friends and parents in the video of the event. According to Brittany and Patrick’s Instagram Story posts, the party was held on Sunday at the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden.
A few butterflies were welcome guests, as seen in the video, and Sterling donned her own pair of butterfly wings for part of the day. Guests were treated to tea cup-shaped cookies with the birthday girl’s name on them.
“We celebrated our Sterling Skye today!✨ I can’t even believe we will have a 3 year old in just a few days!” Brittany captioned the clip, set to Cyndi Lauper’s hit “Girls Just Want to Have Fun.”

“Time flies when you’re having fun! We love you baby girl🥹🤍,” she added.
The mom of two, who also shares son Patrick “Bronze” Lavon III, 14 months, with her husband, shared in an exclusive interview with PEOPLE last month that Sterling now understands a little bit about what her quarterback dad does on the football field.
“My daughter, she can finally kind of realize what’s going on and where she’s at, and she loves to watch her dad play football. She can see him from a mile away and pays attention and keeps up with what’s going on with him,” Brittany said.
“She truly enjoys going down to the field and getting to see him before the game. I think it’s a very special moment wherever I get to bring them to the game and they get to watch their dad play football,” she added.
