North West It's My 5th Bday!!! Fine, I'll Go to the Party

North West is kicking and screaming into old(er) age … just like the rest of us.

North didn’t look thrilled about turning 5 on Friday — not at first, anyway — but Kanye and Kim Kardashian West carried on with her party in NYC. Dad carried her out to the car, and through what looked like a brief tantrum.

She eventually settled down — in her super cute traditional Chinese dress — as the fam and some friends hit up the Polo Bar for dinner, and more importantly … killer birthday dessert!

Now, we know serving up cakes is nothing new for Kim — she’s been doing it for years — but, the multi-layered one she sliced into for her daughter’s party was spectacular … complete with candy in the center! Just watch. (Diabetics might wanna look away)

Happy birthday, North! Where does the time go? Seriously.
