On Tuesday, the supermodel mom spent the morning at her Hamptons home filling more than 35 goody bags for her pint-sized guests and putting the finishing touches on the homemade cake she made for Sailor’s party later that day.
"She's doing what she's always done," says a source close to the cover girl. "She's putting her children first."
On Wednesday, Cook also threw Sailor and her friends a party.
Brinkley threw what one friend calls "a relaxed backyard birthday party" at her Sag Harbor, N.Y., home.
"The whole event was fun low-key and warm," says the friend. "Christie was out in the yard, barefoot in her T-shirt and Capris, making sure everybody was having fun. She's not the type who would hire Hannah Montana to come and perform at the party."
Guests Got Wet
Sailor and her friends – children from both classes in her grade and other Hamptons pals – spent the day jumping in and out of Brinkley's pool, running around the yard in their bathing suits and "taking endless turns on the inflatable slippy slide" Brinkley placed in the yard for them.The most memorable part of the day came when Brinkley and the kids chased each other with whipped cream pies. "She was at the center of the pie throwing contest," says the friend. "One boy was chasing her and trying to get her in the face. She was running and laughing. You would never know the cloud she’s under."
