Gigi Hadid's daughter Khai is having a magical birthday!

After kicking off the day by sharing that she and her little girl had enjoyed some cake for breakfast and taken a trip to the park, the supermodel, 29, later posted a carousel of images in honor of her daughter’s 4th birthday on Thursday, Sept. 19 — revealing that Khai had a pretty special party to celebrate her big day.

Among the snaps, Hadid shared a cute photo that showed the mother-daughter duo standing next to a table with an impressive Baby Yoda cake, complete with a message reading, “May the FOURce be with you.”

In the pic, Khai wore a white T-shirt and shorts with pink cowboy boots and had cute braids at the front of her long brown hair, while her mom stood close by, smiling in a white sleeveless T-shirt and cargo pants.

“Our girl is 4 today and we celebrated all week!!! She loves animals (fantastical ones too), music, baby yoda, all things nature & bugs, Descendants, anything squishy or miniature, and if possible- will be in the water from dawn til dusk. 🐬," the supermodel began the caption of her post.
