Brittany Mahomes took to Instagram to share a tender moment with her three-year-old daughter, Sterling, who’s feeling the chill of the season's shift.

On Tuesday, August 13, the 28-year-old former soccer star posted a snuggle-filled video captioned, "Sick snuggles this weather change really getting to my girl ."

This isn't the first health hurdle for the little one this year. In May, Brittany disclosed Sterling was grappling with a persistent stomach virus. “Day four of sickness for my baby boo. Some stomach virus that won't get the heck out of here," she captioned a photo of the two enjoying a sleepy cuddle.

Despite the challenge, the toddler showed her resilience, bouncing back quickly enough to request a swim in the pool — a moment the mom-of-two captured and shared via her Instagram Story, writing, "Who says a dip in the pool can't fix it."

The Mahomes family is no stranger to sharing their life’s sweet and challenging moments publicly, with Brittany — who also shares 20-month-old son Bronze with Patrick Mahomes — often posting family snapshots on social media. On Friday, July 12, the couple revealed in a joint Instagram Reels that they are expecting their third baby together.

In February, the gang celebrated the 28-year-old NFL champ leading the Kansas City Chiefs to a Super Bowl victory. “It means the world that [they’re here],” Patrick said of his family after taking down the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in overtime. “Brittany is a great wife with two great kids. I can’t ask for anything better than this.
