i found some pic of Wills&Harry wearing the same clothes on corbis, but they were taken in Oct 1984:(
Wills was only 2 in 1984, i don't believe he understood the words 'stealing the limelight' then. children are bound to be like that. maybe he's excited with so many ppl and cameras

the photo is in the corridor of the windsor castle, sorry by the little quality of the images.

Is it wrong that I'm bumping this? Okay I decided to post some info I found from People Magazine about William's christening
Quote:
It was a brief ceremony for His Royal Highness Prince William Arthur Philip Louis of Wales—but then, it was only the first of thousands. The very first official pronouncements of the infant who is expected one day to be King of England were the three little squeaks he emitted in the Music Room of Buckingham Palace as Dr. Robert Runcie, the Archbishop of Canterbury, poured the baptismal water over his head. Although medieval Britons believed that such cries were a sign that the Devil had left the child's body, Diana still blushed at each squeal, Prince Charles gallantly wiped dribbles from his son's chin and Queen Elizabeth later joked that her grandson showed stage presence: "He's a good speech-maker." Dr. Runcie abandoned the sonorous old Book of Common Prayer service in favor of the modern baptismal rite and adjured William's parents and godparents "to bring up this child to fight against evil and follow Christ."
It was, however, a distinctly elegant affair. The Choristers of the Chapels Royal sang two hymns during the 25-minute ritual, for which William wore a voluminous 1841 christening robe of Honiton lace over Spitalfields silk, made for Queen Victoria's son, the future Edward VII. The gown has aged gracefully over the years, from white to ivory to its current magnolia shade. The Queen was in a dress of periwinkle blue with white spots, Princess Diana in a floral summer print of pink and white and a wide-brimmed pink hat. The silver gilt lily font, from which the British monarchs have been christened since 1841, was brought to Buckingham Palace from the Tower of London for the occasion.
After the christening, the royals retreated for photographs and lunch as well as for champagne and christening cake (the top layer of Charles and Diana's wedding cake). The young Prince got only a quick peek at the festivities before being whisked away by his nanny, Barbara Barnes. As one observer put it, "Royal babies adhere rigidly to nursery routines," christening or not.
For anyone who didn't know the press photos afterwards were taken in the White Drawing Room
And just a small mention of Harry's christening. Mostly talks about the apparent feud with Princess Anne:
Quote:
While 3-month-old Prince Henry Charles Albert David, third in line to the British throne, was ceremoniously baptized over a Victorian gilded lily font by the Archbishop of Canterbury at St. George's Chapel, Windsor, his Auntie Anne and her husband, Capt. Mark Phillips, were out shooting in the countryside, bagging rabbits.
