Sam and Snezana Wood were all about birthdays this weekend, celebrating Sam’s 42nd and daughter Eve’s 17th back to back.
Taking to Instagram with a series of family snaps from the festivities, the Bachelor success story appeared to be keeping things low-key with intimate family celebrations.
Snezana posted photos and videos from a morning spent at home for Sam’s birthday, accompanied with a loving caption to her husband.
“Happy Birthday @samjameswood You are our everything, we love you,” she wrote, before sharing details from his big day, including a few hilarious parenting moments.
“It started with a sweet little surprise breakfast from our girls, then Willow hustling and making us pay $$ for they lolly bags she made, us trying to take a family pic that nobody but a mum wanted to take (standard).
“Followed by some Harper cuddles in hospital, out to dinner and a mum& dad race on the flying fox in the park in the dark, and back home for some yummy birthday cake. What a day, hope you loved it as much as we love you.”
Sam’s special milestone comes just over two weeks after he and Snezana welcomed their third child together, a baby girl named Harper who arrived one month early.
Their newest addition has had to remain in hospital since, but the family were able to visit her in the NICU for a sweet snuggle on Sam’s birthday.
But soon after all the attention shifted from the family’s youngest member to Snezana’s eldest daughter, Eve, who just turned 17.
Born during Snezana’s previous relationship, Eve may only be related to Sam Wood by marriage but the proud stepdad was among the first to wish her a happy birthday.
“Happy birthday beautiful daughter number one,” he captioned a goofy family photo with Eve and her cake on his Instagram stories.
Meanwhile Snezana dedicated a series of photos and a lengthy caption to her firstborn, penning: “Happy 17th Birthday to our eldest and quirkiest daughter @eve.vict – wow when did that happen!
“Seems like on yesterday we had your Alice in wonderland birthday party in Baba & Dedo’s backyard.”
She concluded by dedicating ABBA’s Dancing Queen to her daughter, who celebrated her milestone birthday with a stylish evening out for dinner with a group of girlfriends.
All dressed in chic black gowns, Eve stood out from the pack with her long brown hair and delicate features – she’s already looking just like her stunning mum!
