Can you believe the adorable junior Irwin member has entered his teens?!
That’s right our favourite little Aussie ripper, Bob Irwin is celebrating his 13th birthday.
Robert Clarence Irwin was born on December 1, 2003.
Terri helped kick off her newly-minted teenage son’s big day by taking him to the big smoke in Sydney to chat to 2DayFM’s Rove and Sam, and he even got a delicious dog-shaped birthday cake.
Sister Bindi shared a sweet flashback of her younger brother, penning this poignant message: “Happy Birthday to this amazing human being, my brother! Today you turn 13 and I am so proud of you. I still can’t believe that today you’re a teenager. Since the first day I met you, when you were born, I knew you were destined for great things. You inspire me every day. I love you.”
Meanwhile, his second home Australia Zoo gave the man of the hour his very own dinosaur.
“Woah! Our amazing artist Cameron made this #Pterosaur for Robert’s 13th b’day today! Check it out in the Wetlands,” the zoo tweeted.
Terri, who lost her husband Steve Irwin in tragic and unexpected circumstances back in 2006, noted how much Bob is like his prolific father.
“It’s amazing because he’s so much like his dad,” she said.
“Robert’s into photography and wildlife and getting into the ocean. All the things that Steve loves. So it’s very beautiful watching Robert grow up.”
