Gabriel, 22-months, has certainly grown since his first birthday last August, which is the last time his parents posted a photo of their baby boy facing the camera. Back in May, the royals celebrated Mother's Day with a snapshot of Sofia and her boys, however the image only showed Gabriel and Alexander’s backs.

Shortly after the birth of their second son, Sofia and Carl Philip opened up about the "chaos" of raising boys. Speaking to Kupé magazine, the mom-of-two said, “We try to create as much family time as possible in the evenings, with bathing and knighting and getting on site routine.” She added, “It’s tougher with two than with a child. But there is also twice as much love.”
