Kate Middleton and Prince William's adorable little son Prince George made his Buckingham Palace balcony debut on Saturday, appearing with his parents and other members of the royal family at the annual Trooping the Color parade, where he stole the show!.
This marked the first public appearance for the almost-2-year-old child and his 33-year-old mother, the Duchess of Cambridge, since she and William, 32, presented his newborn sister Princess Charlotte outside a London hospital hours after her birth on May 2. William had brought George to the medical center that day to see the baby.
Kensington Palace, the family's main residence, last week released four official photos of the little prince and baby sister Charlotte.
At the Trooping the Color ceremony, which also celebrates Queen Elizabeth II's 89th birthday, George was dressed in a light blue and cream lace romper that is a family heirloom—William wore the same outfit at the 1984 Trooping the Colour parade, when he was almost 2 years old himself!

Kate wore an ice blue and white, floral Catherine Walker Astrid coat dress and blonde-colored Lock & Co Marisabel hat, according to reports (see more pics of the duchess at the Trooping the Colour parade). William looked dapper in a red military dress uniform.
On the balcony, William held George in his arms. The child appeared shy but curious and pointed several times, looking up in awe at the Royal Air Force's flypast.
