Mariah Carey is closing out the summer with a bang based on the latest photos shared with her two children, twins Moroccan and Monroe, 12.
The singer-songwriter, 54, wowed fans with her latest set of snaps, introducing two adorable new members to the family – a pair of orange kittens!
Mariah posted a picture of herself and her two kids holding onto the tiny new kittens while inside what looked to be their family room, brightly painted in green and decorated with geometric colorful carpeting and a big screen TV.
She then included another photo of herself and Monroe dressed in identical wetsuits, one in blue and one in pink, while making pizzas in their beautiful wooden beam-lined kitchen. Sure enough, they grabbed a pair of pool floaties and made their way to the pool.
“Summer prolonged… even though I try, I can’t let go!” she wrote alongside her photos, quoting the lyrics to her own song “Can’t Let Go” from her 1991 debut record. “Introducing #DemKittens, the new adopted family members: Nacho & Rocky Jr.”
One of her fans was playful enough to comment on her status as the “Queen of Christmas,” asking her: “Where are the Christmas shoes dahhhling?! We trying to plan ahead!” and Mariah simply responded: “Not yet!”
Another added: “I love how you still quote your classic songs and are proud of them,” and a third wrote: “So beautiful to see a megastar do normal things showing everyone she’s a relatable queen,” while one also commented: “When you can quote your own song in your caption.. epic! Also, congrats on the new additions!”
It truly has been a big summer for the “Vision of Love” singer indeed, who celebrated both hers and her twins’ birthdays during this time.

I thank God for you every day! ‘Our love is Supernatural!!!’ Ooh darlings ’cause you’ll ALWAYS be my babies!!!” quoting more of her own lyrics, this time from the 1995 hit “Always Be My Baby.”
