Winter must have come early this year because Gigi Hadid surprised her daughter, Khai, with a whimsical present for her birthday. 

In honor of her little girl turning three years old, the supermodel, 28, threw a Frozen-themed birthday party for her daughter (who she shares with singer Zayn Malik).

Hadid shared photos of the celebration on her Instagram page, including a close-up of the birthday cake. It featured figurines of the Frozen characters—Anna and Olaf—along with a fall and winter theme, with pumpkins on one layer and snowflakes on the bottom tier.

But, the birthday tribute didn’t stop there. The slideshow also included rare snaps of the mother-daughter duo, from Khai painting a colorful design on her mother’s toenails to the pair having fun on the beach.

In the caption, Hadid wrote, “Have been celebrating our THREE YR OLD this week & just so honored to get to be her mama, to get to see life through her !!!! Happy Birthday to my sweetest, smartest, spunkiest bestie !!!!!!!! [pink heart emoji] DREAM KID/love of my life.”

Hadid kept the b-day celebration going on her Instagram Story, where she shared a throwback snap of her daughter’s first birthday cake. “Her first bday cake was insanity,” she captioned the post. “WORD PARTY.”

Back in 2020, Hadid and Malik welcomed their first child into the world. The “Pillow Talk” singer, 30, celebrated the news on Twitter by sharing a first-glimpse photo of himself holding his daughter’s hand. “Our baby girl is here, healthy & beautiful,” he captioned the post. 

Malik continued, “To try to put into words how I am feeling right now would be an impossible task. The love I feel for this tiny human is beyond my understanding. Grateful to know her, proud to call her mine, & thankful for the life we will have together x.”

Wishing you a very happy birthday, Khai!
