[Prince William](http://www.people.com/people/prince%5Fwilliam) and [Princess Kate](http://www.people.com/people/kate%5Fmiddleton) are offering their season’s greetings with three new photos of their rosy-cheeked son. The pictures offer a glimpse at three new faces of [the little royal](http://www.people.com/people/package/gallery/0,,20395222%5F20832553,00.html). There’s the knowing smirk, as if he’s about to set off on a new mission; there’s the inquisitive sideways glance, perhaps at one of his parents standing behind the photographer; and there’s the cheeky grin. The shots were taken in late November by Ed Lane Fox, Prince Harry’s private secretary, and show George, who will be 17 months old on Dec. 22, seated on some stone steps in a courtyard at London’s Kensington Palace.

The royal couple saw Christmas and the end of the year as the perfect time to update people on the prince’s progress with the new shots.
