The Princes, of birthday in Barcelona

Miguel Urdangarín de Borbón, third son of the Dukes of Palm, celebrated Saturday their four birthday, surrounded by the affection of his family and his friends. The small one, host of the first celebration that Infant Cristina and her husband celebrate in their new house of the luxurious Barcelonian district of Pedralbes, received a very special visit, the one of his cousin Infant Leonor. Miguel was very moved by the presence of smallest and her parents, Princes de Asturias, who next to their nephews Victoria Federica and Felipe Juan Froilán, children of Dukes de Lugo, were transferred to the new house of the Urdangarín-Borbón family.

I believe that it is a your thing.

Though it is true that in the last weeks has had more acts, also it is true that her displacements are more short. Both acts of this week have been in Catalonia. Possibly later have a period with fewer activity, they are in the habit of doing always it. Besides, each Infanta is in the habit of having activities with a few institutions or with a class of certain acts. Cristina lives in Barcelona and because of it the Godo delivers, Elena lives in Madrid and she delivered the Open of Madrid.

[LaChicaMadrilena]

Yes, and maybe casa real is giving more activities to Cristina due to the fact that Elena is moving to the new flat and doesn't have enough time. She didn't even go to Barcelona with her kids to celebrate Miguel's birthday

Wat do mean exactly ? If it's to notice that she has some more official acts than than usual, I don't think it is because if you observe her official activities some time she has a lot during a month and nothing after a month too.

But if you say she is everywhere because in the same time she is doing her official job, she is moving to her new house ...and she is making a party for the birthday's son, yes she is everywhere

From Hola

The infanta Leonor invited of exception in the birthday of her cousin Miguel

Four years has fulfilled Miguel Urdangarín, the smallest of the children males of the Dukes of Palm. And many have been those who have travelled up to the Barcelona to be present at the party of birthday that his parents organized. Between them, the Princes of Asturias with the infanta Leonor

I hope that in the magazines of tomorrow there are some photos more. It is a shame that exists so few ones.

Thank you all for great job!

These kids are so cute.

Looks like Irene is starting to walk, since in these pictures whe looks like she wants to go to the floor.

And Leonor - wow - she seems always so alert. I wouldn't like (yes I would) to be on the same room when these two cousins start walking and running together .

And Victoria is getting more beautifull day after day - she will be very graceful when she grows up...

Someone was misbehaving at this time ... dad is angry... mum with that look... Uncle thinking "There you go Iñaki show who's the boss"... Froilan ready to deffend his best pal... and Aunt Letizia with that smile that only aunts and grandmas (and Victoria) have when we are in trouble...

Priceless pic:)!

Miguel Urdangarín, the youngest son of the Dukes of Palma has celebrated his 4th birthday and the Princes of Asturias, Don Felipe and Doña Letizia, along with Infanta Leonor, have travelled to the CondalCity, to attend the celebration and personally take their nephews, Victoria Federica and Froilán (the children of the Dukes of Lugo) to the birthday party. The King and Queen could not attend it, since they were invited to the celebrations in Stockholm of the sixtieth birthday of the Swedish Monarch, Carl Gustav.

Infanta Cristina and Iñaki Urdangarín took advantage of the anniversary of their son, to officially present their new residence in Pedralbes to their relatives and school mates of little Miguel.

The royal family, generous with the press, has posed to the photographers, who have struggled to catch the unique image of all the royal grandchildren in a festive atmosphere.

thanks so much everyone for the brilliant pics! and it's one of those rare times when the Urdangarin boys are not dressed exactly the same. i wonder how they feel...my mother used to do that with me and my sister (who was just a year older) and we both agreed we looked rather silly. he he

I decided to check out this thread after all the great pictures/captions people posted in the Caption This! thread. I have to say I'm happy that I did. It's so cute when the little cousins get together and play. You can tell from the pictures they are very close. I think Felipe always holds Leonor like that to show her off like any proud father. I bet Leonor and Irene will be very good friends. :) Since I don't know the SRF that well, can somebody tell me who are Cristina and Inaki's children and which ones are Elena's? Thanks! :)

[Princess BellyFlop]

The cute blonde ones are Christina's and the euh euh the other ones are Elena's.

[crisiñaki]

Cristina and Iñaki have 4 children: Juan, Pablo, Miguel and Irene
Elena and Jaime have 2 children: Froilan and Victoria

From L-R:
Iñaki with Pablo (second son), Cristina holding Irene (fourth child and only daughter), Miguel (third son) with a shield, behind him his cousin Victoria (daughter of Infanta Elena) with her brother Froilan, Felipe with Leonor and Letizia with Juan (oldest son)

From face to face

King Juan Carlos with Cristina. The photos are of Sunday the King had lunch in house of the Infanta Cristina, and then he surrendered to his annual review in a clinic of Barcelona that is near house of the Infanta.

[crisiñaki]

wow, thanks for those pics!:)
I was wondering why the King didn't visit Cristina while in Barcelona but I guess he went and gave Miguel his present
and by the looks of it, she's daddy's girl :)
it seems like the King is taking fashion advice from Jaime

[nayralorenzo]

Oh, the king is very sweet with his little girl....without children near, I think he feels she is his little girl always!
Thanks for the photos, I like them very much.

[RhapsodyBrat]

thanks for pics! it's great to know just how tightly knit the SRF is.

and i also noticed, King Juan Carlos has a thing for red pants.

[Little_star]

Thank you for the lovely pictures of the family celebrating Miguel's birthday. The birthday boy looks like he's having alot of fun.

And his newest cousin seems to be enjoying herself too! By his next birthday she'll be running around with his little sister, inshallah.
