But the royal baby excitement beganlongbefore baby Archie made his debut into the world.

Everyone knows that first impressions are everything.

After all, you only get one!

Talk about some serious pressure!

Unsurprisingly, Markle somewhat bucked this tradition.

Lindo Wing

Her first appearance wasn’t hours after giving birth, and it wasn’t outside the Lindo Wing.

Instead, Markle will be required to ensure her little one is dressed in the Honiton christening gown.

It denotes class, elegance, restraint, and character."

However, it’s possible that Markle might need a little more practice herself.

“[The younger royals'] wave is probably a little less formal,” says Arbiter.

“More of a hand raise as opposed to the twist of the wrist.”

Markle will undoubtedly be expected to provide a list of godparents for baby Archie.

Luckily, she’s at no loss forclose and trusted pals.

However, this new mama will probably have a difficult time narrowing down the potential godparent list.

No kids allowed here

Ah, the joys of being young.

Everything is more exciting when seen through the lens of childlike wonder.

Imagination is limitless, Christmas is magical, and your birthday is the absolute best day of the year.

After all, you’re not like the other kids you’re a cool kid!

Maybe you’ve yet to reach double digits, but you’re definitely more grown-up than your cousins.

Why can’t you sit with Mom and Dad at the adults' table?

Prince George

Don’t feel bad even royals aren’t exempt from the kids' table.

Markle will be expected to enforce this rule with her little one, as well.

As you’ve probably noticed, the royal children don’t dress like your average tots.

Instead of jeans and a t-shirt, Prince George is always seen wearing shorts and for good reason.
