    Cancel your plans, because Prince George is just turned three and your entire weekend should probably be spent binge eating cake in his honor. The insanely sweet son of Kate Middleton and Prince William took time out of his busy schedule of wearing Mary Janes to do a quick birthday photo shoot in Norfolk for his fans, and managed to look even more adorable than usual.

    "I really enjoyed the opportunity to take these photographs of Prince George," photographer Matt Porteous said. "It was a very relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. I'm honoured [Edit] that they have decided to share these images with the public to mark his third birthday."

    Please prepare for what's about to happen, because it's very sweet. And very royal.

    Also, said swing happens to say his parents' names because that's the level of romance we're dealing with here.

    The end, cake time. Happy birthday, Prince George!
