Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker‘s son celebrated his second birthday on Saturday, Nov. 1.
His proud dad marked the occasion by sharing a sweet tribute on Instagram. Alongside a photo of the toddler fittingly wearing a jersey with the number “13” and a backward cap, Barker, 49, wrote, “Happy Birthday, my Rocky 13 🖤. You’re such a special soul, and you make every day brighter. I love you.”
He continued: “No one’s cooler. Guitars, drums, pirates, boom boom pow, and Angus Young forever 🎸🥁🏴☠️ 🥊.”
Rocky’s aunt Khloé Kardashian showed her love, commenting on Barker’s post, “Happy birthday to the cutest!!!!! Rocky!”
Kourtney, 46, and Barker welcomed their first child together in November 2023. The Lemme founder and the Blink-182 drummer wed in 2022.
They shared the first photos of their son a month after his birth, writing, “ROCKY 🖤,” in their joint Instagram caption.
The couple is parents to seven children between them. Kourtney shares sons Mason, 15, and Reign, 10, plus daughter Penelope, 13, with ex Scott Disick.
Barker, meanwhile, is also a dad to son Landon, 22, daughter Alabama, 19, and stepdaughter Atiana De La Hoya, 26, with his ex-wife Shanna Moakler.

Earlier this month, Kourtney subtly responded to criticism about choosing not to show her youngest son’s face on social media.
After superimposing a jack-o’-lantern emoji over Rocky’s face to maintain his privacy in a photo shared on Instagram, commentators questioned The Kardashians star’s decision to do so.
“Why cover his face when everyone knows what he looks like,” one user wrote, while another added, “Just weird to me you would even post the picture of just him and block out his face .. just don’t post it at all. So dumb.”
As another social media user replied, “This is a sign you care btw,” Kourtney didn’t directly respond to the comment, but she “liked” the user’s response in solidarity.
Other Instagram users also came to the mom of four’s defense. One wrote, “Just because paparazzi doesn’t respect the parents’ wishes and shows his face doesn’t mean they need to be bullied into posting him. It’s what they want.”
