An adorable baby has become her family's new "passenger princess" as she reaches out for her dad's hand as he drives.
Mom-of-five Amanda Ivanelli, 36, from Chicago shared heartwarming footage of her husband and youngest child, year-old Capri.
As her father drives the cart, little Capri lovingly reaches to grasp his hand, all while looking adoringly at her dad.
The video captured the hearts of thousands of TikTokers and amassed 290,000 views as fans were left touched by the father and daughter bond.
Amanda Ivanelli (@aivanelli) who lives with her family in southwest Florida told Newsweek: "It's been an absolute dream to watch my husband become a girl dad after four boys.
"Not only has she become passenger princess, but she has become the princess of our home."
Amanda revealed Capri was a complete surprise and came after four sons: CJ, 12, Luca, 11, Bruno, 8, and Enzo, 5.
In an Instagram post, the content creator said she had her first child aged 24 and the latest addition to their clan, Capri, when she was 35 last year.
The busy mom never found out the gender of any of her children, adding to the extra element of surprise when her baby girl arrived.
Amanda added: "She has everyone wrapped around her little finger. All the boys are absolutely smitten over her.
"She is so loved. Our home has definitely been softened because of her."
The term "passenger princess" generally refers to someone who relishes being driven around.
The proud mom snapped the sentimental moment between the two from the back seat. Capri's hand appears to be minuscule in comparison to her dad's palm.
Amanda shared the video with the caption: "POV: your new passenger princess is now a tiny version of your wife."
The endearing footage received 414 comments where users enthused over the sweet act.
User Brooke said: "Her little hand wrapping around dad's hand. I can't handle this
Another tiktoker added: "I love when my baby does this, It's so precious."
One user urged the parents to treasure such moments because they pass all too quickly.
They commented: "Enjoy these moments! You'll blink and it will be gone. My boys are taller than me now!"
Katelyn Ecker said: "The audible gasp that I just let out, because of how adorable this is."
