Trooping The Colour 2019

Kate Middleton is getting in the holiday season. The Duchess of Cambridge visited Peterley Manor Farm on Thursday (December 5) to help kids pick out Christmas trees for their schools. As royal watchers know, Kate has dedicated much of her official royal life to children's causes, so, this visit was right up her alley.

During the visit, Kate had a super sweet interaction with one of the children. When the excited little kid raised their hand and said "me, me!" to get the Duchess' attention, Kate said she was reminded of her 1 year old son Prince Louis. According to royal reporter Rebecca English, “Kate stroked his cheek and said, ‘You remind me of my little Louis, he keeps saying, ‘Me, me, me’ and he wants to come everywhere with me.’”

Though Kate and her husband, Prince William, do their best to keep their children out of the public eye, this isn't the first time little Louis' vibrant personality has been hinted at. The adorable little prince stole the show when he and his older siblings, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, attended a polo match with Kate over the summer. An onlooker observed that the young prince is "a real character."

Another onlooker also revealed Louis was “scampering out and dashing out to the edge of the polo field, and she was running out after him and picking him up, and eventually she sat down with him at the wooden border and pointed out the horses. She took him over to the polo ponies at the polo lines and chatted to the grooms with him. He is a funny little chap. He looked very pleased with himself.”

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to share some new photographs of their family as they visited the RHS Back to Nature Garden at the #ChelseaFlowerShow on Sunday afternoon. The photographs were taken by @mattporteous. The #RHSChelsea Back to Nature Garden, designed by The Duchess and award-winning landscape architects Andrée Davies and Adam White of Davies White Landscape Architects, is a woodland setting for families and communities to come together and connect with nature. Her Royal Highness is a strong advocate for the proven benefits the outdoors has on physical and mental health, and the positive impact that nature and the environment can have on childhood development in particular. Over the past months, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis have helped The Duchess gather moss, leaves and twigs to help decorate @The_RHS Back to Nature Garden. Hazel sticks collected by the family were also used to make the garden’s den. The Duchess told Monty Don in an interview for the BBC: “I really feel that nature and being interactive outdoors has huge benefits on our physical and mental wellbeing, particularly for young children. I really hope that this woodland that we have created really inspires families, kids and communities to get outside, enjoy nature and the outdoors, and spend quality time together.”

Back in May, Kate said Louis "is keeping us on our toes" as he learned to walk. “I turned around the other day and he was at the top of the slide — I had no idea!” she added.

It's been a while since we've seen little Louis out and about with his parents, however, it's likely the Cambridges will be releasing their annual family Christmas card in the coming weeks, which will feature all three of their children.
