Princess Charlotte starts nursery school

sweetie

It's truly weird how much that kid looks like Queen Elizabeth.

Darling. Love her little outfit.

A Treasure.

She's adorbs!

Harlot!

How entrepreneurial of her.

It's nice to see the younger royals get jobs and/or start businesses.

Is it just me or is William and Kate churning out babies like it's no one's business. Hasn't he ever considered pulling out?

Cute!

R8 as they already had an heir and a spare, I guess No. 3 was just a drunken night.

Ms he looks like a Middleton. Granny Carol Middleton.

Charlotte looks like she has been playing with mummy's Botox.

Tomorrow is mummy's birthday

[quote]Kate Middleton in pictures: Duchess of Cambridge celebrates birthday tomorrow

Fatso

Isn’t she just the plumpest little dumpling ever? Tots adorbs!

She's a cutie, but they are feeding her too much cake.

Are they still making poor little George wear shorts when it's freezing outside?

Damned cracker, trying to steal my thunder!

Why am I always last?

R2 agree

I love ice cream!!

The red coat outfit is adorable. But she's cute because she's a little toddler and they're all cute. But objectively, not a great beauty yet. Maybe she'll grow into it.

I see they haven’t taught her to sit with her knees together yet, the harlot.

She is a cutie pie and she does look like Granny Middleton.

I don't know why people are in such a knot about the number of kids they have. It's not like it's some brood of 10. If you can afford - and you've got help to care for the little buggers - why not?

She seems to like having her picture taken. She poses and smiles. Cute kid

Kate took the photos, so Charlotte is really comfortable posing for her. Cute little kid.

She looks fat to me.

She needs a purse to complete the look.

Let's hope Charlotte doesn't develop legs as (ahem) generously-sized as Princess Michael's.

Maybe I’m a sucker and it’s all an illusion but I really like William and Harry and wish the best for their families and futures.

Not sure why I think they’re genuinely decent - - usually I’m the first to say all celebs are calculating fakes—- with them, I don’t feel that way.

I wonder what Mrs. Patsy Ramsey (formerly of Boulder, CO) thinks of the little bitc—-I mean, my adorbs niece-to-be!—and her tendency to hog all the media attention so close to an upcoming Royal wedding....

R30 me too but maybe it's a holdover from my admiration for Diana.

She’s so stinking cute. And her brother is, too. I can’t help it; I like this family.

Yes r32, I think that’s a good part of it. I’m sad that Diana missed years with her boys and very much hope they have many happy years with their own children.... some sort of compensation in my mind I suppose.

Nothing that a little fruit and a garrot can't fix.

She's adorable. Kate comes from a family of three kids and they are very close. That's naturally what's she probably trying to create for her kids.

I'd love to babysit her.

I don't know whether to ww or ff r37

Take a ticket and wait in line R37! She's mine!

Here is why Prince George always wears shorts, even when it's freezing. Trousers on little boys are considered pedestrian and beneath them. When it's cold, feel sorry for the poor boy.

Charlotte vs. Elizabeth. There's a resemblance.

I’ve always thought the same thing, [R2]. That kid looks bizarrely like great grandma Elizabeth!

She looks like a tiny old lady—even in her smile.

Not all the royals dress boys in shorts. Here's Harry in jeans:

R44, he may be 8 years old in that picture. They said that when the boys turn 8 years old, they can wear pants. Trousers are considered too suburban or middle-class for young male Royalty less than 8. It really is a dumb rule.

She is very cute.

Your theory is not true, r45. About 10 seconds of googling turns up pics of Di's boys in long pants long before they were 8.

Harry in long pants, 1990 (the year he turned 7).

Harry in jeans, 1989 (age 6).

Doesn't look like he's 8 here:

Charlotte looks more like the Queen at 90, not as a little girl.

Even Liz doesn't give a shit. Edward, age 6,long pants:

r8 if she stays pregnant she doesn't have to go to as many royal functions.

R47, R48, I don't give a shit why they dress Prince George in shorts. You have to ask yourself why they continue to dress this little guy in shorts while it's freezing? Are they returning to tradition? There are plenty of articles asking why Prince George is always wearing shorts. I had the politely linked another article. Do I know why Princess Di didn't? I'm to the royal stylist but she was known to buck tradition. Maybe William wants to fall back on tradition?

It's George. He believes in tradition.

The kids are mini-Middletons. Both of them.

A perfect little lady.

If they are mini-Middletons, then she will have to keep having babies until they don't look like them.

r53, I'd guess it's Kate's doing. She's trying way too hard -- remember the nanny in uniform? Actual royals are dressing their kids like other modern kids, not just in shorts.

The Middleton genes are strong. Charlotte has the heavy-lids, thin lips of granny Carole Middleton and the darker olive skin type from the Goldsmith family line. Kate's brother has an even darker olive complexion. George has dark eyes and is the identical copy of his grandpa Middleton.

I honestly don't see any Windsor Mountbatten resemblances in Charlotte or George. Also both kids lack the high forehead that Diana had and passed onto William.

Why do they let her walk- she isn't 12 yet!

Charlotte looks like William in that pic of R59.

Kate looks like George in 59's photo

If you say so, r59.

Let's face it, the little porker could stand to lose a few pounds.

Anorexic moms produce fat kids.

Nobody has yet mentioned the one trait of their father, seen in his and their baby pictures: The nose hump that will become the unfortunate elongated nose of William.

They want to be absolutely certain that Harry never, ever gets anywhere close to the throne.

Or if Harry dies, Andrew gets nowhere near the throne and the loopy York girls, as well, r69. If anything happened to William and his children, Andrew would be next in line. He's at the moment No. 6.

Correction, if anything happened to William, his kids and then Harry - then Andrew would be next in line.

I don't see it, R41, but Charlotte in that photo looks a lot like her brother. Are there any photos floating around of Kate's grandparents?

I also think Charlotte looks like the Queen. I can definitely see a resemblance.

Give it up, r73.

She better watch it. I'm the fabulous one.

I think she looks like William a bit and I can especially see it when compared with r67

Man, Harry was an ugly baby. Funny that he grew into the cute one and William's turning into a big-nosed old man.
