Hi, Baby Axl!

Kapuso actress Kylie Padilla shared an adorable photo of her more than one-month-old son Axl Romeo Abrenica.

On her Instagram photo, Baby Axl looks happy while receiving kisses from his mom.

This marks the first time the Encantadia star has shown the infant's full face.

The 26-year-old actress captioned the post with a heartwarming story on how she wants to keep her babies close.

“As soon as my kids leave my body, I want nothing more than to keep them close to me.

“That's what happened with Alas and it's definitely what happened with Axl.

“At the hospital, I slept with him beside me and the first time he did, I felt his heart slow, I felt his breath soothing and calming.

“We both felt the most peaceful quiet together. We were both at peace knowing we had each other.

“It is these moments that I truly believe in the power of touch.”

As soon as my kids leave my body I want nothing more than to keep them close to me. That's what happened with Alas and it's definitely what happened with Axl. At the hospital I slept with him beside me and the first time he did, I felt his heart slow I felt his breath soothing and calming. We both felt the most peaceful quiet together. We were both at peace knowing we had each other. It is these moments that I truly believe in the power of touch. January 21 is national hugs day and I encourage all moms and dads to trust your instincts, that it's okay to touch your babies, and encourage the power of touch.

I have always instilled the power of touch perhaps stubbornly ignoring some advice, but I really believe for a baby your presence is absolutely essential for his or her growth. The power of touch is one way to ensure that ❤️ #BelieveinTouch #JohnsonsCottonTouch @johnsonsbabyph

She likened them as mini versions of her and husband Aljur.

“Mini mama and mini papa,” she wrote.
