Shirtless Emile Hirsch snuggles with adorableson Valor in heartwarming snap after joining Instagram

He is too cute not to share with the world.

And that's apparently what Emile Hirsch had in mind when he joined Instagram on Friday and posted his first photo on the site of his son Valor, who turns one on Oct. 27.

The Lone Survivor star and Valor looked like they were just waking up, as Emile is shirtless in his kitchen while holding the youngster in his arms.

The blonde cutie pie, with his plump cheeks and adorable button nose, looks happy and content to be snuggling with his dad first thing in the morning.

Valor was born in a hospital in Cape Canaveral, Florida and weighed six pounds, two ounces.

The mother is an unnamed former flame of the actor.

While Emile and the woman are no longer romantically linked , it is said that the two will remain friends and plan on raising Valor together.

Meanwhile, the 29-year-old is working on a film adaptation of the 2012 Eleanor Henderson novel Ten Thousand Saints.

The book follows a group of friends and lovers, parents and children, from 1987 to 2006, weaving through not only the neighbourhoods in New York, but also through the straight-edge punk scene and the AIDS epidemic.
