These gorgeous new photos of Prince Louis playing with George and Charlotte are too much

Just the kind of photos you need on a Monday morning.

The royal family has released new photos of Prince Louis and his siblings Prince George and Princess Charlotte and they are too adorable for words. The shots show that the youngest member of the Cambridge family, who turned one last month, is now walking. The images were captured in the garden Kate Middleton designed for the Chelsea Flower Show. Louis used his newfound mobility to make the most of the outdoor space while George and Charlotte could be seen climbing the waterfall and dipping their bare feet in the stream. The Duchess hopes to inspire families to get outdoors with her 'Back to Nature' garden, she said.

"Ninety per cent of our adult brains are developed before the age of five and what a child experiences in those really early years directly affects how the brain develops," she said. "That’s why I think it’s so important, whether we’re parents or carers or family members, really engage in quality time with children and babies from a really young age. "I really feel that nature and being interactive outdoors has huge benefits on our physical and mental wellbeing, particularly for young kiddies."

The new photos were shared just days after Kate revealed that little Louis was walking. She now has to keep a close eye on her youngest, she told well-wishers during a visit to Bletchley Park. "I turned around the other day and he was at the top of the slide — I had no idea!" the Duchess laughed.
