As a Monday treat, Kensington Palace released a bonus photo of Prince Louis with his mom Kate Middleton after his christening a week ago. Louis appears laughing and smiling with his mom in the garden of Clarence House. "The Duke and Duchess hope that everyone enjoys this lovely photograph of Prince Louis as much as they do," Kensington Palace wrote in its caption.

Two other photos of Louis have been released since his April 23 birth, but in both shots, he's either asleep or just chillin'.
