Joaquin is the youngest of Ripa and Consuelo's three children. Their other kids are daughter Lola, 19, and 23-year-old son, Michael. Joaquin turning 18 means all Ripa and Consuelo's kids are now adults.

Many of the adorable couple's fans commented on their posts, wishing Joaquin a happy birthday and expressing pleasure at how much he has grown.

Besides advancing in age, Joaquin is also moving to a new phase in his life. Earlier in the month, his mom revealed that he is trying to decide on a college and has many options.

That Joaquin is even able to attend college is something that his parents are most proud and emotional about, given that he has dyslexia and dysgraphia.

During an appearance on "Live with Kelly and Ryan," Ripa revealed her husband FaceTimed her one night and was emotional about Joaquin going to college as he never thought he would do so because of his dyslexia and dysgraphia.

However, as Ripa narrated, Joaquin overcame the "misunderstood learning difference" with hard work, determination, and remediation. She added that dyslexia and dysgraphia have been blessings for their family.

With her children growing older, Ripa can only look back to when they were little kids and recall the fond memories they shared. Last month, she did that last month when she shared throwback pictures of her, Consuelos, Michael, and Lola.

One of the pictures showed Consuelos holding up Lola, who was clad in her diapers, as they played in the pool. Another snap showed Ripa holding Lola, who was wearing a pink dress, while Michael looked at them.

The adorable family will have many more memorable moments to share in the years to come, and hopefully, they will be filled with more joy and happiness.
