Marian Rivera and Dingdong Dantes celebrated the birthday of their son Jose Sixto, nicknamed Ziggy, over the weekend.

As seen on Instagram, the couple threw Ziggy a Pinocchio-themed party as he turned four years old on Sunday, April 16.

“Happy 4th Birthday Six. We love you so much, my sweet baby boy!” Marian wrote in the caption of her post.

In the comments, Dingdong thanked the actress for arranging Sixto’s birthday celebration, which was held in Makati and attended by their family and friends. “Thanks for arranging everything, SuperMama,” the actor wrote.

Dingdong and Marian were the picture of proud parents as they celebrated Sixto, who obviously had a blast during his birthday party. In one photo, Sixto — or Ziggy, as he is fondly referred to by his parents — is seen blowing his Pinocchio-themed cake as Marian, Dingdong, and Sixto’s older sister Zia looked on. He and Zia also seemed to enjoy the games in other snaps shared by Marian.

Earlier, Marian and Dingdong surprised their son with a special birthday gift — a Pinocchio wooden toy carved by their local artist and wood sculptor-friend, Charming Baldemor.

“Celebrating Sixto's 4th birthday with a special surprise - Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio! This wooden toy (from old ipil), carved by our talented sculptor friend Charming Baldemor, has quickly become one of his favorites,” Dingdong wrote on Instagram.

“Just like how I watched Superman 2 countless times in the ‘80s, Sixto has seen this movie about 20 times already! It's amazing how stories and characters like Pinocchio are timeless and carry valuable lessons. Here's to a birthday filled with imagination, wonder, and lots of playtime with this special gift!” he added.

Among those who joined in wishing Sixto a happy birthday were Jennylyn Mercado, Sarah Lahbati, Sanya Lopez, Adrian Alandy, and Shaira Diaz.

Aside from Sixto, Marian and Dingdong also share a daughter, Zia, who will turn eight years old this November.

The couple, who recently moved into their dream home, will celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary also this December.

In a past interview, Marian said she is open to the idea of having more kids with Dingdong in the future.

"Kung anong ibigay ng Panginoon sa amin, tatanggapin namin 'yan," she said. "Dalawa is okay sa akin pero kung pagpapalain at bibigyan ng pagkakataon, why not?"

"Kung bibigyan ulit, thank you na binigyan ulit ng pagkakataon pero kung dalawa lang talaga, sobrang thank you thank you na diyan sa dalawang anak ko na 'yan.”

Dingdong echoed the same sentiment in a chat with G3 San Diego in 2021. Asked whether he and Marian are planning to have more kids, the Hard Day actor had a ready answer.

"Definitely. We want more," he said.
