Kane Brown’s youngest daughter, Kodi Jane, celebrated her 1st Birthday on Friday (Dec. 30) with an adorable “1st Rodeo” themed party and no detail was missed throughout the celebration.
The party, which took place in The Browns’ Tennessee home, featured an array of pink, brown and white decorations, including “Kodi’s First Rodeo” cookies, bandanas, custom cups, drink stirrers with custom Kodi charms, and more.
Guests who attended the birthday party also enjoyed a 1st rodeo photo booth in front of a baby pink barn that was branded with “Kodi’s Barn” in rope lettering, which was complete with a cowhide rug and a massive balloon arch.
In addition to the rodeo-themed decorations, Kodi Jane also celebrated with a custom cake that featured cow print, pops of pink, brown, and white, as well as baby’s breath and wheat accents. Kodi was also written on the cake in lasso rope lettering.
Following the party, Kane and Katelyn shared snapshots with fans on Instagram and also wished Kodi a happy birthday.
“Happy first birthday baby girl ❤️,” Kane captioned a photo of himself with his wife and daughter.
“Kodi’s 1st Rodeo, 🤠🎂💖“ Katelyn simply wrote alongside a series of snapshots.
Kane and Katelyn even played the part as they both dressed in cowboy hats and western-themed outfits.
Big Sister Kingsley was also on hand to celebrate.
Kane and Katelyn shocked fans last New Year’s Eve when they announced Kodi Jane’s arrival. Her birth took fans by surprise as the couple never publicly revealed Katelyn’s pregnancy.
“New year, New family member ❤️ welcome to the family Kodi Jane 🥰 secrets finally out,” Brown shared at the time on Instagram alongside a photo that was taken in the hospital after Kodi’s birth.
Kodi Jane was born on December 30, 2021, weighing 7lbs. 9oz. and measuring 20.5 inches long, according to People.com.
Katelyn later opened up about keeping her pregnancy private and shared how it impacted her mental state.
“These past 9 months have been so sacred and special to me. Choosing to keep my pregnancy quiet was the best decision I’ve ever made,” she wrote on Instagram.
“Soaking in special moments with my daughter and husband without the influence of social media and outside world made this time that much more intimate and unforgettable,” she continued. “Thank you for all the kind messages and love. I am so grateful and blessed to be these little girls mama and can not wait to raise strong, confident, sweet little ladies with you @kanebrown_music … you are the man we all look up to.”
Weeks after Kodi’s birth, Kane and Katelyn revealed that they got new tattoos in honor of their second baby girl.
Kane opted for their daughter’s first name, and Katelyn went with her first and middle name.
It’s no surprise that Kane and Katelyn got tattoos for little Kodi Jane as they did the same for their first daughter, Kingsley Rose.
Kodi Jane and big sister Kingsley Rose share the KB initials with the other members of the family.
Earlier this month, Brown appeared during the season 22 finale of NBC’s The Voice, where he and Blake Shelton delivered the live debut of their first-ever duet, “Different Man.”
“Different Man” is the title track to Brown’s long-awaited third studio album, which arrived on September 9, 2022.
The project features his latest chart-topping singles “One Mississippi” and “Like I Love Country Music,” as well as “Thank God,” a duet with his wife, Katelyn, and the Shelton duet. The album also includes previously released tracks “Grand,” “One Mississippi,” “Whiskey Sour,” and “Leave You Alone.”
Kane will soon take his album on the road in March of 2023 on the Drunk or Dreaming Tour. The trek, which features special guests Dustin Lynch, Gabby Barrett and LOCASH on select dates, will kick off in Grand Rapids, MI on March 16, 2023, and will visit 23 cities throughout the United States before wrapping up in Greenwood Village, CO at Fiddler’s Green Amphitheatre on Saturday, June 10, 2023.
While embarking on the massive headlining trek, Brown will headline Bridgestone Arena in Nashville for the first time ever on March 31.
Different Man follows Brown’s second studio album, 2018’s Experiment. In August of 2020, Brown released his ACM-nominated EP, Mixtape Vol. 1, which included several hit singles such as “Cool Again,” “Worldwide Beautiful” “Worship You” and his Top 40 radio single, “Be Like That” featuring Khalid and Swae Lee.
