The lady doing the readings was very chique. I missed her name? It was the one with the green dress and the beige fascinator with voile. She sported beautiful pearl-and-diamond earrings.

The babies are adorable! Albert and Charlene look so proud. I love the way Charlene looks at the babies.

 Hey, Moonmaiden! Yes, fun! I'll regret it in a few hours, though. 
Charming babies. So beautiful!

Charlene looks so beautiful and I love the loving way she looks at her babies.
The babies are absolutely beautiful and love how Gabriella has been sucking on her fingers :)

Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella are behaving extremely well. Not the slightest hiccup when the Bishop poured water on them. A very stylish service. Nice choir as well.
Now the baptism is over, the regular Sunday Mass will start.

Beautiful babies. And Charlene is shining pure pride and happiness. I love Charlene holding Jacques and Albert holding Gabriella in their arms. Babies were very calm and attentive during the baptism with holy water.

(just for the record: the other monarchies don't have female primogeniture (that would that a daughter always takes precedence of her brother, even if she was younger) but absolute or equal primogeniture Primogeniture - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia )

Awww man they are both so cute and so bald! The one time in life where their father has more hair than them. They both look so sweet in their christening gowns and are extremely well behaved. Charlene and Albert both look great and are super happy. :)

Charlene looks absolutely beautiful and dignified today.
Could hear baby crying and saw Charlene came out of the room behind where they sit, maybe she went in to comfort the twin.

I saw that! During the ceremony there were times it seemed like Jacques wanted to see Gabriella. Very sweet.
