Introducing Saint West! And isn’t he a little cutie?
Kim chose a very special day to publish the sweet shot of her son – February 22nd is her late father Robert Kardashian’s birthday.
“Today is my dad’s birthday. I know there’s nothing more in the world he would have wanted than to meet his grandchildren. So I wanted to share this pic of Saint with you all,” the 35-year-old penned in an emotional post on her personal website.
Robert tragically passed away in 2003 from esophageal cancer and thus never got to meet the next generation of his family. “Happy Birthday dad! So much has gone on in our lives since you’ve been gone, and I know you have been my guardian angel seeing it all unfold! I love you and miss you so much,” the reality star poignantly added on what would have been his 72nd birthday.
Kim later took to Instagram to post the same shot of her blissful bub kicking back in a white romper with his hands above his head. She simply captioned it “SAINT WEST” and unsurprisingly, it has gained over a million likes in just four hours.
Seeing double: Saint (L) looks a lot like his big sister North (R, pictured in 2013) when she was a newborn.
This is the first proper glance the world’s been given of Saint, who was born on December 5 last year, and already the similarities between him and his big sister North are being made.
Late last year, Kris Jenner revealed that her “delicious” grandson Saint “looks like North!” And now we can totally understand.
It’s easy to see the resemblance when comparing the two’s baby photos, with their cherubic lips and button noses there’s no doubt Saint and North are cut from the same cloth.
But according to Kim, North is still not too sure about her baby bro.
“For some reason, North hates when I feed the baby, and she lays on my lap so Saint can’t be right in front of me to eat,” the Selfie author revealed on her website during a discussion about breastfeeding last month.
“I’m not gonna lie – it can be time-consuming.”
Kim and Kanye are also the proud parents to two-year-old daughter, North.
Meanwhile, proud grandmother-of-five Kris also took to Instagram to beam about Saint’s official debut.
“Good Morning everyone…meet my grandson Saint!!!!! He’s a little lovebug and an amazing gift from God,” she explained.
According to Kim, North, who turns three in June, is still adjusting to being a big sister.
