She was born in 2016

Patridge and her then-husband, Corey, welcomed their daughter, Kirra Max Bohan, on June 24, 2016.

“Every day I look at her and I can’t believe she’s mine,” Patridge said at the time. “She’s so cute, it melts my heart.”

Kirra was named after Patridge's grandfather

In a blog post after Kirra's birth, Patridge shared that she had always loved the name and that it was also the name of a surf spot in Australia.

Similarly, Kirra’s middle name has significance as it paystribute to Patridge's grandfather.

“We named her after my grandpa, Max, who unfortunately passed away about a month ago. She was due on his birthday, and he couldn’t wait to meet her," Patridge wrote. "He would have been so proud ... I love and miss him so much."

Her favorite word as a toddler was “disgusting”

When Kirra was 3 years old, she discovered a new favorite word.

“Kirra is a girly girl but she’s also a tomboy, so lately her word that she’s been saying is ‘disgusting,’ ” Patridge told PEOPLE in 2019.

“So [if] she sees something or she goes in an elevator and it smells, she’ll go, ‘That’s disgusting, Mommy,’ ” she added while imitating her daughter’s annoyed face. “It’s so cute, it’s funny.”

She’s a big fan of Frozen

One of Kirra’s first red carpet events was the world premiere of Frozen 2 in 2019. Kirra, then 3, wore a white dress with silver accents, a matching headband and a silver bag. Meanwhile, Patridge donned a yellow dress with a braided belt and carried a Louis Vuitton bag.

Patridge is teaching Kirra good communication skills

When it comes to raising Kirra, Patridge wants to be intentional in teaching her daughter how to be a strong communicator.

"When she gets frustrated from a game or something she’s going through with her friends, I teach her to use her voice to put those emotions and feelings into words and communicate them," Patridge shared with Yahoo Life. "We’re so close, so I know instantly when her energy is off. I say, 'what’s going on? You want to talk?' "

Patridge concluded, sharing some advice for parents, "You have to pay attention and ask questions and help them understand why they’re feeling the way they are."
