Malti Marie is living her best life on vacation with her parents Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Nick Jonas. The toddler (who turns 2 this month!) spent time in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, to ring in the New Year, and she is talking up a storm in one sweet video.
Beautiful blue skies, sandy beaches, and turquoise waters filled Chopra Jonas’s latest Instagram post. All the photos look amazing — as we deal with frigid winter temperatures in the States — but the very last slide is the cutest thing we’ve ever seen. The video is taken on a boat, where Malti steers her family over the water. The “Waffle House” singer is sitting at the helm with his daughter in his lap, and Chopra Jonas standing right next to them.
Dressed in a long-sleeve pink sweater and matching pants, Malti has both hands on the huge steering wheel and moves it all around while loudly singing and babbling. At one point you can hear Malti say, “beep beep,” and although she’s off camera, you can just picture her pretending to honk the horn. She’s absolutely adorable!
The Citadel star also shared family pictures of her, Jonas, and Malti on the beach; a short clip of her holding Malti’s hands as the waves come up on the shore; and a sweet photo of Malti sleeping on her mama’s chest among others.
“Took some time to feed my soul. 2023 had me spent … maybe I still am,” Chopra Jonas captioned the post. “Here’s to a 2024 highlighted by peace, respite, family, love, joy and community.”
“Hold your loved ones close. We are very lucky if we can. Happy new year ❤️????????,” she added.
Jonas commented, “❤️❤️❤️.”
Others commented on how cute Malti is. “The last one ????♥️♥️ cutest thing ever !!” one person wrote.
“The last slide. Her babbling is so precious ❤️❤️❤️stay blessed and wishing you guys a happy new year,” another commented.
Although she hasn’t turned 2 yet, Malti Marie is already a world traveler. “She’s a little traveler,” Chopra Jonas told Entertainment Tonight in April. “But my parents raised me like that, and so was my husband.”
Chopra Jonas herself “started traveling when I was very young, when I was, like, four or five months,” she explained. “So it’s the same thing for her, right now. She’s not in school, so we can schlep her wherever we want.” Chopra Jonas added, “I love spending time with her so it’s so cool.”
Despite the good memories they’ve been making lately, Chopra Jonas isn’t without her share of motherhood worries.
In an interview with PEOPLE in October 2023, Chopra Jonas said, “I look at [my daughter’s] smile, and I’m like, ‘Okay, okay. I’m doing good so far.’ It’s the greatest thing I’ve ever done, but it’s extremely scary,” she continued about raising her daughter.
Chopra Jonas added, “I think when you put them to bed, it’s extremely overwhelming because every single day you worry about what you can do wrong and what mistake you might make. But you have to check yourself, and I check myself with my family.”
And if her family can help her stay grounded while on vacation together, all the better!
