My Britishness is coming out a lot today and I just had to share this cute picture of Prince George. Look at those chubby cheeks!! I just want to squish them.

    He is so cute but WTF is he wearing? It looks like a mini version of his Grandma's wedding dress from the 80's...lol. I have seen some frilly christening gowns but that one takes the cake!

    It's a replica of a gown worn by Queen Victoria's eldest daughter in 1841, I don't like the colour to be honest.

    I'm surprised neither Harry nor Pippa are in the list of Godparents.  Is that a British thing - for aunts and uncles to not be godparents?
    From what I have read in the papers they wanted family and friends from different points in their lives to provide normalcy and stability

    He is adorable. I love Will and Kate. 
    @Frankierokx why do articles about them have people making mean comments about it being a sham marriage and calling her waity Katie? (I know the waity part but arent people past that.) It seems from what I read the majority of Brits like her. Just curious....also my DD is Kate and coincidentally has the same birthday as her.

    @KKDRAGONFLY   They call her waity Katie because she was with Will 8 years before he proposed, she gave up her job and her life to transition to a royal, and the press made fun of her for it.

    I haven't seen this recently. It always seems like people love her. I do! Btw, I rather wait for an actual prince than some jackass who is sowing his wild oats.

    That little baby is adorable. We had a family Christening gown too. My kids are not christened, but if we did, they would absolutely wear the same gown. Mum would have brought it with her in her hand luggage!! :)

    1) I love that you put a "u" in color. My grandma is from the UK and taught me how to spell so I put "u" in the word color all the time and people make fun of me...lol

    2) I think it is the color that is throwing me off also. We have a family gown and I am all about boys in gowns but I think the color plus the mass amount of frill makes him look like a doily

    They all looked so lovely! Kate is the epitome of class, and that baby is adorable. They look so normal and unpretentious! I love the sentiment behind the Christening gown, too. My daughter's wasn't white either, but had been worn by every female in our family, as this wee one will do if baby is a girl. Meaning trumps norms every day of the week in my book.

    Our dress is ecru, not white. It's beautiful.

    Could you imagine a boy NOT wearing a gown here? I'd be utterly shocked honestly.

    They are an adorable little family! DS wore the same christening outfit my brother did. It was special because he is DS's god father. DD will likely get a new gown as the one from DS are little pants for a boy.

    Canadian's spell it with a u as well :) although people using American programs with American spell check is kind of killing that.

    My iPhone has stopped correcting me, and has apparently made peace with my u's. It doesn't even redline me when I type realise anymore.
