Taking to Instagram, Chance posted a picture of Marli wearing a white flower-patterned onesie while smiling and looking excitedly at the camera.

The birthday girl who looks a lot like her father was seated on a mattress and had some dolls surrounding her. Marli looked adorable as her hair was packed into two high ponytails. Captioning the image, Chance said:

He and his wife Kristen Corley welcomed their second child, Marli on August 29, 2019. According to Chance, having two children is way harder than having one.

While it might be fun and games sometimes, there are some days he would prefer changing dirty diapers to waking up in the night.
