Though Beyoncé and JAY-Z are a notoriously private couple, they have shared glimpses of their lives via Queen Bey's Instagram, plus there have been plenty of adorably delightful moments from Blue Ivy's appearances at red carpet events with her parents. The music icons are proud parents to daughter Blue Ivy and twins Rumi and Sir, and we just can't get enough of the first fam of music. You could say we're crazy in love with them!
