Chrissy Teigen and John Legend are loving loving every aspect of parenthood.

Two-month-old baby Luna has a "strong bond" with her dad, Chrissy told E! News exclusively at REVOLVE's Hamptons Fourth of July Cookout. "He's her world."

"She comes to me, she wants boobs, she wants food, and she looks at me and she giggles at me and she laughs," said the model and Cravings author, "but when she looks at him, it's like these dreamy, weird, different eyes and it's so sweet to see...I think there's no relationship like a father-daughter relationship so it's really cool to see them together."

John also looks at Chrissy in a new way now that she's the mother of his child. He's a very supportive hubby, Chrissy explained, and he's part of the reason she's not in any huge rush to lose those last few pregnancy pounds. As Chrissy quipped to E! News, "John actually loves the new pieces!"

The model mama said she's "in a rut" when it comes to getting back to her pre-baby body (Chrissy credited her "strong undergarment game" for making us think otherwise), but she's too busy enjoying little Luna to lose her cool about it. "You just realize you have to give yourself time and understand that you push out a baby, and it took this long to put on the weight, and it's not going to peel right off, and that's OK," she said.

Chrissy credited John, "fellow moms and people being so supportive" for the reassurance. "Because listen," she said, "you should've have to rush to shed anything. It's OK! It's fine. Enjoy your baby. Don't go crazy."

Wise words. For more from Chrissy on motherhood, baby Luna and to hear what it was like shooting a cameo for Fergie's "M.I.L.F. $" with Kim Kardashian and Ciara, watch the videos above.
