Gisele Bündchen is loving life with her family.
On Wednesday, July 23, the mother of three checked in with fans on social media with a new set of photos that included rare snaps of her youngest, whom she shares with boyfriend Joaquim Valente. It was her first post since May 27.
“Haven’t been around here much, but I wanted to take a moment to say thank you for all the warm birthday wishes,” the model wrote as her Instagram caption after celebrating her 45th birthday on July 20.
She started her carousel off with a photo of her standing beside a loved one as they both smiled, holding cakes indoors.
Bündchen continued, “I’m so grateful for another trip around the sun and even more grateful to have spent it in nature, surrounded by love and my family.”
The Brazilian model shares two children with her ex-husband Tom Brady, son Benjamin, 15, and daughter Vivian, 12. In February, she welcomed her third child, her first with Valente.
Their baby boy’s name has not yet been revealed, but a source previously told PEOPLE that his middle name is River.
Vivian appeared in a shot with her mother.
Both ladies had their backs to the camera as they observed a waterfall while exploring nature on a sunny day. Another image showed family and friends gathered at a large outdoor table for a meal.
In between photos of food and other special moments, Bündchen shared two pictures of her youngest child — though she made sure not to show his face in either image.
The model also expressed her gratitude for family in a May interview with Vogue France. "Now that my little one is sleeping through the night, I'm back in control of my routine," Bündchen said. "As any new mom knows, it's incredible how much sleep — or lack of it — can change everything!" "But once again, I feel truly grateful: being able to be home with my kids and enjoy every moment with them is priceless," she told the publication. At the end of January, a source told PEOPLE, "Gisele's doing great. She seems the happiest she's ever been. She's truly thriving."
