It was a big day in Pippa O'Connor's household as she celebrated her son Louis turning eight with one hell of a birthday cake!
Pippa and her TV presenter husband Brian Ormond share three boys, Ollie, Louis and Billy, but this day was all about the middle child and it looked like they had a great time.
The birthday boy woke up to presents and the house decked out with huge balloons and birthday banners... and we have a feeling that Louis has a soft spot for Mentos sweets!
Like every mum, there is a moment of nostalgia when one of their babies turns a year older, and Pippa is no exception.
Looking back she posted a selection of pictures from when Louis was born and over the last eight years, and proudly described her son as a 'real life of sunshine' who has a 'witty sense of humour'.
The theme for turning eight was Mentos but not just any flavour. It looks like Fanta orange is his favourite.
The sponge was iced in the same colour while the centre of it had rows of the chewy sweets. On top was a packet of the Fanta flavour delights with Louis' name on top. We have to say it looks like it would take a week to get through this masterpiece!
Jumping in for a family photo, Louis looked like he was delighted with how the day was going while the youngest, Billy, was eyeing up the cake, waiting to dig into a slice.
Beside the photos, Pippa said: 'Celebrating 8 years of this real life of sunshine. Happy 8th Birthday Louis Lou. The funniest boy who makes us all laugh with his witty sense of humour. Adored by us all.'
And it wasn't just his mum and dad that wished him a 'Happy Birthday.' Designer Darren Kennedy, Nadia Forde and Georgia Crawford all sent their love.
Happy Birthday Louis!
