It's Great-Granny! George says hello to the Queen, watched by William and his nanny Teresa Borallo''
It might have been Princess Charlotte's christening but the Queen was on hand to make sure her big brother George didn't feel left out.
As the Royal Family emerged from the church of St. Mary Magdalene, Her Majesty was seen smiling broadly as the prince, who celebrates his second birthday this month, approached.
The Queen was making her second appearance of the day at the Sandringham parish church, having earlier visited for Sunday prayers with the Duke of Edinburgh.
Distracted: Prince George appeared distracted by the crowds and turned away from his granny to look
For that, she wore a lavender ensemble, complete with a matching hat, but changed into a pink floral outfit for the christening.
Afterwards, the monarch hosted a christening tea for Princess Charlotte and the guests attending the christening, among them the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall.
Carole Middleton, 60, was also there and looked elegant in a beige ensemble that complemented the Duchess of Cambridge's cream Alexander McQueen.
Sister Pippa Middleton, 31, was also in cream and topped her structured 1950's-style dress with a neat cocktail hat by society milliner Jane Taylor.

The Queen also played host to Charlotte's five godparents, among them Princess Diana's niece The Honourable Laura Fellowes, 35.
Sister Charlotte arrived in a pram pushed by her mother, the Duchess of Cambridge, who looked wonderful in a cream Alexander McQueen ensemble.
George, who celebrates his second birthday later this month, was making his fourth UK public visit, shortly after an equally scene-stealing appearance at Trooping the Colour in June.
On that occasion, the little boy was seen gleefully clapping his hands as the royal procession rolled past the window from which he and nanny Maria Teresa Burallo were watching.
Later, he was carried out onto the Buckingham Palace balcony for the first time and looked entranced when the traditional flypast soared over his head.
George, who has spent the past two months at Anmer Hall in Norfolk with his parents and baby sister, also made headlines for his appearance outside the Lindo Wing on the day of Charlotte's birth.
