When Beyoncé and Jay-Z rented a $400,000 per month mansion on Malibu beach, right around the rumoured birth date of their twins, we all knew there was a glorious, extra photoshoot coming our way. We salivated, we speculated… we prepared for the arrival of the first official photos of the brand-new Carter Twins.

I mean, this is how Beyoncé chose to introduce the world to her baby bump. THIS.

Obviously we were in for a feast for the eyes when these kiddies popped out.

And, lo, it has arrived from on high. The first official picture of Queen Bey with her precious lil be(y)be(y)s.

Sir Carter and Rumi 1 month today. ??❤️??????????

First: let’s talk names. The rumour that the twins were called “Sir” and “Rumi” (which began when the Carters applied for a trademark on the names) appears to be true, according to Bey’s Instagram announce above. Little Sir Carter (fucking adorable, c’mon) and Rumi Carter, fraternal twin boy and girl, are now one month old. Jeez, does that family have cool names, or what?

Second: Those. Babies. Are. Adorable.

They are precious bundles of joy and I love them. I want to steal them.

Finally: look, the whole thing is a fucking masterwork. The colours, the composition. It’s an actual work of art. And Bey’s outfit… I just can’t! I want to wear that blue veil (I think, a coded reference to her first-born, Blue Ivy) in my everyday life.

Obviously the internet is appropriately W I L D  F O R  I T. Especially since, like, it may be Friday arvo for us, but woman dropped the pics at 5am US time — she is truly The Boss (Beyby).

Basically the whole thing is just amazing, incredible and happy Friday news. I love it, you love it. We all love it.

I’m not crying… you are.
