The Rickster is all grown up, y'all! Emily Maynard's adorable daughter just started first grade, and she's already a miniature cheerleader. Wave your pom-poms in the air like you just don't care, Ricki!

Emily and her sweet gal live in Charlotte, North Carolina, with Em's fiance, Jef Holm — and the three musketeers hit up a local football game so Ricki could get her cheer on. Sigh, it's best to start 'em young, right guys? Before we know it this gal will be fist-pumping for the Dallas Cowboys.

Ricki must have done some fabulous jazz hands, because Emily tweeted that she was the "proudest mommy ever" and posted this beyond adorable picture of Ricki in her cheer outfit. Loving the light-up glow necklaces, girl. So fashion forward!
