White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt made sure her baby boy’s first birthday was unforgettable
— complete with heartfelt tributes, matching T-shirts, and even a real digger in the backyard.
Leavitt, 27, and husband Nicholas Riccio celebrated their son Nicholas “Niko” Robert Riccio turning one,
sharing the milestone on Instagram. “Today my sweet, happy, sensitive, funny, and handsome baby turned one,”
she wrote. “There are no words to describe how much I love this little boy. I thank God every day for making me his mommy.”
The backyard bash carried a construction theme to match Niko’s love of trucks. Alongside banners with his face,
a cake topped with mini diggers, and custom yellow cups with his name, the highlight was an actual digger brought
in for the occasion. Karoline and Nicholas wore matching “Mama” and “Dada” shirts as Niko dove into his cake, frosting smeared across his face.
Fans flooded the comments: “This is so precious!” and “Great job mom and dad.” Karoline,
touched by the love, thanked friends and family for making the day special.
Though she’s busy in Washington, Karoline’s post showed her focus was firmly on faith, family, and celebrating Niko’s first year.
