Leonore seems to be a popular name lately 
Cute baby. I guess she gets her dark hair from her paternal grandpa.
Congrats to the parents!

you should check out this video of him on Rtl Boulevard. Whether or not you speak Dutch, doesn't matter. It's sheer joy to get to hear Constantijn's voice and see his moving facial features.
And---never in my lifetime thought I'd be saying this, people, but the guy is so utterly handsome, totally like his father was, and seems quite charming to boot! Plus, again, that voice--very sympathetic-sounding.
Now, I am one of those people who does like princess Laurentien a lot, she seems a great girl without an ounce of pretense--and I like her in all departments but looks. And to be brutally honest, her husband has grown into the kind of honestly charming man who could get any girl he fancied--whether or not he'd inherited that title his.
(Oh no! Am I developing a crush here?!  )
Check out for yourselves that this prince is as handsome as his late father:

excellent finding, Marie Annemy!
i'm glad they released more than 1 photo, as they did on the birth of Claus-Casimir.
They whole family looks very happy, and Laurentien is definitely glowing!
Queen Beatrix sure looks very happy. and that's a really nice picture of her with her grandchildren.
Oh.. i hope, she could take picture with her whole grandchildren. They're so many! maybe after Mabel's baby's birth.
here's the pictures (not the HQ ones) from RVD :

Wonderful, wonderful pictures! What a lovely family. And did anyone notice how Claus Casimir is a total lookalike of his uncle Friso when he was a child?!
The only thing seeing these picture s is that it makes me a bit nostalgic, I can't help but think, wish that Claus had been able to live and see these wonderful tiny additions to the family.

What very sweet pictures! Even Grandma Beatrix has the glow! :)
I love the last one especially with the whole family. I love how Eloise, Constantijn and Laurentien are totally engrossed in Leonore while Claus-Casimir is lying on the seat himself not paying attention at all to Leonore! Maybe he wanted a baby brother! I do like how Constantijn is resting his hand on Claus-Casimir's tummy though, as if to say that they're not ignoring him just because there's a baby in the room.
And I can't believe how much Claus-Casimir has grown up. He looks so much older. And Eloise is the spitting image of her mom.

yes I was also totally amazed by Claus Casimir, who, when I last came across pictures of him, was still a real baby, and now, he's this little person, a real boy! And again, can't help but think back of pictures of Constantijn and <his> brothers when they were small, and how much Claus Casimir resembles them!

Thank you for sharing the pictures of Leonore and their tender lovely family.
It's been a while since I saw Claus-Casimir and OMG he is so grown up and beautiful. He resembles his uncles a lot on the same age.
Sweet and little Leonore is doomed - she has two mums. Eloise is going to be a tiny-full-hands mum :).
And Queen Beatriz has that spark in the eyes when a new life renew all our hopes and affections - so sweet.
I wish Laurentien and Constantijn a long and happy life!
Regards,
mtbcm :)

Fantastic photos. I love the one with Beatrix and her grandchildren, Leonore is so tiny in her grandmothers arms. And Laurentien looks great as well.
