Eric Christian Olsen and wife Sarah Wright Olsen have been devoted to spending more time with each other and their three children ever since NCIS: Los Angeles came to an end this May.
The couple, who have been married for 11 years, are parents to son Wyatt, nine, and daughters Esme, six, and Winter, who just turned three.
In honor of their youngest's special day, Sarah, 39, took to Instagram to share a photo of her husband, 46, doting over his daughter while holding her in his arms.
The actress took to the caption to explain their emotional journey to becoming parents a third time over, detailing the difficulty of her pregnancy and the deep desire for their third child.
"This is 3," she wrote. "Tonight I told her that she was magical and she said, 'I know I have my powers.' She's our rainbow baby."
Sarah added: "We thought about her, prayed for her, dreamt of her for so long. We wrote names on a lil chalk board and we voted on them… we couldn't wait for her special day. It's a pregnancy and a birth I will carry with me always.

Their family friend Nikki Reed, who recently welcomed her own second child with Ian Somerhalder, commented: "Happy birthday to my little fairy angel who gives the best hugs. We love you Wintieeee! So much [love] and happy birth-day to you too mama!!"

The actor was a part of the cast from the show's premiere in 2009, and with its cancelation after 14 years on the air, it became the second spin-off of the NCIS multiverse to come to a close after NCIS: New Orleans. A new spin-off, however, NCIS: Sydney, will be premiering in November.

With a photo of himself doing a yoga stretch while his daughter sat on his back, he wrote: "Day one of Covid. It declined raaapidly from here. Spent the next two days on the floor. Like tried to watch puss and boots and couldn't comprehend the plot.

We all dodged it for three years but when it came for us, it came with zero respect for our delusions of grandeur."
