Recently, the champion swimmer took to Instagram to post a series of photos of him with his first-born, Boomer. The caption read “Happy Bday @boomerphelps 6?!? How!!! It doesn’t make any sense how fast ⏱️ goes.” Phelps also wrote that he was beyond stoked to see what the next year brings.

Boomer, who is 6 now, was at the Rio Olympics where his father swam in his last race. He also happens to be the only one of Michael and Nicole’s children to have watched their father perform live (even though he might not remember it).

It is indeed heartwarming to see Phelps post photos of him and his son as they celebrate a special day in Boomer’s life.
