Rumer Willis was surrounded by love on her first Mother's Day -- from her mom Demi Moore embracing her new role as grandma to a blended family celebration alongside Emma Heming.
Moore took to Instagram on Sunday to celebrate her first Mother's Day as a grandparent to newborn baby girl Louetta.
Moore shared a carousel of images that included a black and white photo of herself holding the newest addition to the Willis family while wearing a leopard print string bikini and black sunglasses.
"Circle of life," she captioned the post. "Happy Mother's Day!"

Other photos included a shot of her daughter giving birth at home last month and a throwback picture from her own maternity shoot when she was pregnant with Rumer.
"Oh that's beautiful," commented Moore’s ex-husband Bruce Willis' wife, Emma.
In her own Mother's Day tribute post, Rumer, 34, shared a slideshow to Instagram that began with an old polaroid of Demi holding her as a newborn. Other photos included shots of Rumer’s home water birth when she welcomed her baby in April. Moore was also seen holding her daughter’s hand and embracing her as she welcomed new life into the world.
"To be able to celebrate this day with you is beyond words, the privilege to walk in this path of motherhood with you by my side to support and guide me is something I have only dreamed of," she wrote in the caption.

In another post Rumer wrote a note to her daughter alongside sweet images of the girl as well as her birth.
"To my girl, my most precious girl Lou," her post began, "I have waited and dreamed of you my whole life. You are more than I could have ever imagined. You have changed my life in the most profound way. It is the privilege and honor of my life to be your Mother and I will do everything and anything for you always. I hope you never stop wanting to sleep next to me or take baths with me."
"I can’t wait to see who you are, although I feel like I have known you my whole life. One of the first things i said after you were born was “oh my girl, I missed you” I didn’t even realize I had said it til @buuski told me later but it’s true. I feel like i have always known you and you me. You are the most beautiful creature I have ever met. I still wake up every morning and can’t believe you are mine," she continued.
"Thank you for choosing me to be your mama, thank you for trusting me to guide you through your life," she went on to write. "Every moment and contraction and every bit of the pain of birth was worth it and I would do it a thousand times over if it means getting to spend one sec with you."
