Princess Lilibet, the youngest child of Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, is 4!

Lilibet, who goes by Lili, was born June 4, 2021, at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital in Santa Barbara, California, making her the first senior royal baby born in the United States and the first of the late Queen Elizabeth II's great-grandchildren to be born outside of the United Kingdom.

Meghan marked her daughter's fourth birthday by sharing memories on Instagram, including a video of herself and Harry dancing in the delivery room before Lili's birth.

In the video, Meghan, wearing a black sleeveless dress, and Harry, wearing jeans and a hoodie, dance next to a hospital bed to the viral song, "The Baby Momma Dance."

Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, shared video on Instagram of the delivery room dance she and Prince Harry did before the birth of their daughter Lilibet on June 4, 2021.

"Four years ago today, this also happened. Both of our children were a week past their due dates… so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn't work - there was only one thing left to do! 😂," Meghan captioned the video.

Earlier in the day, Meghan also shared several photos on Instagram, including a current photo showing a rare glimpse of Lili's face and a throwback photo from Lili's birth.

"Happy birthday to our beautiful girl! Four years ago today she came into our lives - and each day is brighter and better because of it. Thanks to all of those sending love and celebrating her special day!" Meghan captioned the photos.

In another post, Meghan shared two photos of Harry and Lili together, writing of their father-daughter relationship, "The sweetest bond to watch unfold 💕Daddy's little girl and favorite adventurer. Happy birthday Lili!"

In addition to Lili, Harry and Meghan are also the parents of a son, Archie, who turned 6 in May.

Meghan has shared details of the family's life in California on her Netflix show "With Love, Meghan," which premiered in March.

"Lili and I actually made this batch [of preserves] together," she tells friends in one of the show's episodes, adding that Lili feels "proud" helping her. "She picked all those berries with me, and then she's like, 'No, no, Mama, I'll do it.' And she wants to try. She's like, 'I'll stir it. I'll mash it.'"
