In celebration of Prince George's sixth birthday, we take a look at his most adorable moments

It seemed like just yesterday that little baby George melted our hearts on the steps of St. Mary’s Hospital (and bestowed upon us countless memes since—cue @garyjanetti). Over the years, we've watched Prince William and Kate Middleton's first child grow from a grumpy baby to a sassy toddler. As the future king celebrates his sixth birthday on 22 July, we look back at the best moments of the little royal that has made us swoon, laugh and sometimes, both.
