Kristen Doute is sharing a new sweet look at her infant daughter Kaia.

The Vanderpump Rules star, 42, shared a new glimpse at her growing 1-month-old baby, whom she welcomed in June with fiancé Luke Broderick, on her Instagram Stories.

The sweet snap shows Kaia lying on a light blue blanket in her crib, smiling up at the camera in a number-printed onesie, with a cozy white blanket draped over her. 

She wrote over the photo that it’s a “daily dose of Kaia cuteness.”

The reality star announced the birth of her daughter on Instagram on June 13 alongside a picture of her holding Kaia’s small hand in her own. She did not show the child’s face but revealed the name she and her fiancé settled on: Kaia Lily Broderick,

“... We’ve never known a love like this until you. 🪷,” Doute captioned the post.

She told Us Weekly that the name “Kaia” had an important meaning tied to their relationship, with a heartfelt tribute to Hawaii, where they got engaged.

“We knew we wanted our baby name to have something to do, or revolve around, water,” she said of the name, which translates to "sea" in Hawaiian. “Lillies are my favorite flower. They’re associated with new beginnings, beauty, and also the name Lily indicates a ‘gentle and compassionate nature, suggesting a kind and caring personality.'”

Doute spoke with PEOPLE in April before welcoming Kaia and shared that the little girl's special name has long been set.

"She has been named since before we got pregnant, and of course, we had to revisit the name and make sure it did feel right, and it did," Doute told PEOPLE at the time. "And we've been calling her that, especially Luke in the beginning."

Since welcoming her little one, Doute has been determined to keep her little girl healthy and protected from germs.

"My baby is under a month old & this goes for family & friends," Doute posted on her Instagram Stories last month. "Don’t kiss my baby. Don’t touch her face. If you were out of town, at a party, have even a TICKLE in your throat - don’t come over. Get that TDAP shot, baby! If i’m cool with you holding her, i’ll let you know so please don’t ask and make it weird 😘😘😘 (moms - you’re not crazy. babies are small & germs are big.)"
