Baby Countdown

Prince George and Princess Charlotte of Cambridge have been out of the public eye since September when George started school at Thomas's Battersea.

The little prince was accompanied on his first day by dad Prince William but mum Catherine was suffering from extreme morning sickness and had to stay home in bed. 

William and George's arrival at Thomas's was captured by the press and Kensington Palace issued a photo of the two princes standing on the front steps of their home. 

Likewise, Charlotte commenced preschool
at Willcocks Nursery School not far from home in Kensington in early January. Press photographers were not in attendance but again the Palace released two gorgeous photos of the two year old princess taken by the Duchess of Cambridge. 

We really haven't seen much of the children since the Cambridge tour of Germany and Poland last July. But the coming months will present more opportunities to see the little ones. 

In April, the third Cambridge baby is due and it is expected that Catherine will again give birth in the Lindo Wing of St Mary's hospital in Paddington.  

As well as a photo opportunity on the steps of the hospital, it is hoped new photos will be issued to mark the arrival of this new prince or princess. Charlotte will turn three on May 2nd.

If that isn't enough excitement for the family and royal watchers, Prince Harry will wed Ms. Meghan Markle at St George's Chapel in Windsor Castle on 19th May. George and Charlotte may well play a role as pageboy and flower girl just as they did for Aunty Pippa last May.

And then there will be the baby's christening approximately three months after his or her birth as well as Trooping the Colour at Buckingham Palace in early June. 

A big year coming up for the Cambridge family and Prince Harry!

Prince Harry Engaged

Prince Henry of Wales has announced his engagement to American actress Ms. Meghan Markle. The couple has known each other for sixteen months after being introduced by a mutual friend in London.

Harry, 33 and Meghan, 36 are to be married in the spring of 2018 and more details of the wedding will be released in due course.No doubt they will have to plan the wedding date around the Duchess of Cambridge's pregnancy due date in April. Catherine was overdue with her first two babies so this will be tricky. 

Prince Harry presented Ms Markle with an engagement ring made of two diamonds from his late mother Diana, Princess of Wales plus a diamond from Botswana where the couple has holidayed.

Meghan and Harry were photographed by the media in the sunken garden at Kensington Palace. This is the same garden that was transformed this last summer with a beautiful collection of Diana's favourite flowers to mark the 20th anniversary of her death.

The couple will live in Nottingham Cottage in Kensington Palace which was once the home of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge before they renovated Apartment 1A. It is expected that an apartment at the Palace will be made available to Prince Harry and then modified to suit his needs.

As this blog chronicles the lives of the children of both Princes William and Harry, no doubt we will be covering a few more royal babies in the coming years.
