Now I’m obsessed with Prince George’s eyes. Are they really dark hazel or just straight-up brown? Prince William has blue eyes and Kate… well, I think she has hazel eyes? So George got brown eyes probably from the Middleton side of the family. Carole has brown eyes, I think. So many people say that George looks like the Middleton side of the family, but to me, George just looks like Prince William, only with darker eyes. Anyway, People Magazine has put the royal stuff on their cover again this week. There are actually two covers, one with George and another “collector’s edition” with Kate holding baby Charlotte. Two covers… and barely any new information.

Miles of green fields, a kid-friendly home (mortgage-free!) and quiet time with their newborn and toddler: For Prince William and Princess Kate, country living is as close to bliss as can be. As Kate, 33, and William, 32, settle into their first few weeks with 11-day-old Princess Charlotte and 21-month-old Prince George, they “don’t have any plans other than to have a proper family life,” a close friend tells PEOPLE in this week’s cover story.

William’s job as an air-ambulance pilot gives him the chance to finish a shift and then head back home in time “to read [the kids] a story,” says the friend.

Meanwhile, George has the run of the family’s 10-bedroom home, Anmer Hall – located in the countryside northeast of London – which was gifted to them by Queen Elizabeth.

“This part of Norfolk is very peaceful,” says Marie Therese Viney, who co-owns the nearby Church Farm Bed and Breakfast with her husband, Nigel. (The Queen is their landlord.) “It is the perfect place to raise a family.”

For William and Kate, the idyllic location allows them to “be mother and father in isolation a bit,” says the friend. “It’s a dream scenario for them.”

Well, William doesn’t go back to his air ambulance training until June 1st, so he’s not finishing up a shift and heading back home to read bedtime stories right now. William actually was in Staffordshire today, making an appearance with the England Women’s football team – go here to see some photos. What struck me about this People Magazine story is that this might be a half-assed attempt to make Will and Kate look like they’re a “just so normal” young family, doing it mostly on their own. Like, they don’t have a house full of staff and Carole Middleton isn’t managing the whole household.

Two more items. In last week’s People story about the royals, there was this interesting little note: Kate and William did a champagne toast with the doctors right after Kate gave birth. Second item: Queen Elizabeth said yesterday, “We love to have another girl.” The royal “we”!! Love it.
