When his mom Siera Bearchell Wray (33) went to the salon, Iver didn't want to miss out on the fun.

"I was at the salon with my son by my side and he asked if he could 'pick a colour.' The ladies at the salon and I said, 'absolutely!'" she shared on TikTok.

Soon, Iver’s tiny nails were painted a bright orange – his favorite color.

"This shouldn't be a big deal but it feels like a big deal to have a husband who is so happy and excited about whatever makes his kids happy," Siera wrote.

TikTok users were also full of praise for Brennen's reaction.

"As a nail tech who’s having a son this year, I literally cannot wait for this," one commenter posted.

"I love everything about this! I do need to warn you though. I took my son to get a pedicure, and he loved it. He now expects them every week. Sir, in this economy?!" another joked.
