Cuoco’s recent snap comes after she revealed her daughter’s discovery of a mirror.

“She found the mirror,” Cuoco wrote across a picture of her daughter, who was dressed in a yellow and purple floral playsuit, grinning as she held onto two sides of a mirror. 

The mother of one then posted a slightly zoomed-out photo of Matilda turning back to look at her mom.

“She’s definitely our kid lol,” Cuoco wrote over the snap.

Meanwhile, Cuoco and actor Pelphrey, 41, celebrated their daughter’s milestone first birthday on March 30.

Sharing a video compilation of pictures with their daughter, the 8 Simple Rules alum wrote, “🩷Matilda🩷 you are 1! Best year of our lives,” as the song “Growin’ Up Raising You” by Gabby Barrett played over the top. “You are a gift from above and have brought the deepest perfect joy to our entire family!”

“Dada and I love you more than we could possibly ever explain,” the proud mom continued. “I cannot wait to see who you become, but for now, please stay my precious 1-year-old forever. 🩷🩷.”

“@tommypelphrey thank you for being the best daddy (besides my own) the world has ever seen,” she added.
