Ash Barty celebrates son's first birthday

Ash Barty and husband Garry Kissick have celebrated their baby boy's first birthday with the help of an adorable hedgehog cake. 

The three-time grand slam champ took to Instagram to share the update, with a cute family photo captioned: "Cake for breakfast 🥳." 

Friends and fans took to the comments to wish their birthday wishes. 

"ALWAYS a good idea!" commented former Diamonds netballer Catherine Coxy.

Former Australian tennis player Casey Dellacqua commented, "Get it boy. Happiest 1st bday gorgeous boy. See you for the biggest birthday cuddle soon 😍"

"Happy birthday Hayden! Well done mum and dad for surviving the first year x," added former Olympic swimmer Libby Trickett. 

"So sweet," wrote one fan. 

"Naww happy birthday cutie pie" added another. 

Just a few months ago, Barty and Hayden had their first mother-and-son photoshoot as part of the annual BONDS Baby Search campaign. 

In an interview with 9honey for the annual campaign, Barty opened up on the trials and tribulations of new parenthood.

"I have so much admiration for parents now I have a child of my own – being a parent is the hardest but the best thing in the world," she said.

"I don't think anything quite prepares you for motherhood!

"For me it's been a huge learning curve and the most wonderful experience of my life. It's not comparable to anything else."

She described Hayden as a "happy, relaxed little boy." 

"He is a beautiful baby and I am enjoying every minute with him, I know how quickly the time passes."
