Many happy returns to Prince Oscar of Sweden! The youngster celebrated his second birthday on Friday and, in keeping with tradition, the Swedish royal family shared three new portraits of the little prince to mark his special day. A statement issued on the official royal website read: "Anyone wishing to send a congratulations to the Prince can do it via Facebook or by sending a greeting via the website's greetings form. The pictures are taken at Haga Castle." In one photo, Oscar looks delighted as he tucks into his birthday cake, dressed for the occasion in a blue shirt under a knitted cream sweater vest. In the second snap, Oscar is midway through blowing out his birthday candles, with a sign reading 'Happy Birthday' clearly visible in the background. In the third, Oscar's big sister, six-year-old Princess Estelle, can be seen sweetly stroking his face while celebrating his special day with him.
