Today is Prince Louis of Wales’s seventh birthday. I wondered if Louis’s parents would even release a new photo, or if they would recycle an older one. Surprisingly, they released a photo and it looks quite recent. Louis is suddenly looking much more grown-up and like he’s grown several inches in the past few months. Kids grow like weeds at this age. Louis’s birthday came during a moment where he’s lost his front baby teeth, so his open-mouthed smile makes him look like he just got his teeth knocked out in a football brawl. It’s cute.
I also think it’s interesting that the Princess of Wales didn’t photograph Louis for his birthday – the photo credit here is Josh Shinner. Is Kate done with photographing her kids for their birthdays? We’ll find out soon enough with Charlotte and George’s birthdays. Anyway, Kate used to say that out of all her kids, she thought Louis looked the most like her. I can see it, although I think all three Wales kids take after the Middleton side of the family. I’m not trying to start any fights about this, it’s just my opinion! All of the kids are going to end up with Kate’s hair color too.
Update: KP posted this video for Lou’s b-day too.
