Where has the time gone? Can you believe Archie Harrison is two years old?!

Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan's sweet little boy was born on May 6, 2019 and we've already had some fun opportunities to see the little lad in action, from appearances at official royal events to some sweet surprise moments.

We last saw Archie in a photo the Sussexes shared on their Instagram on New Year's Eve. The adorable little boy was wearing a grey toque, brown jacket and boots as his dad held him. The picture, taken by Meghan, was likely snapped while the family of three were on their break from royal duties in British Columbia, where they stayed from November until just a few months ago. They've since relocated to Los Angeles.

Royal fans got a very sweet treat back in September, when Meghan and Harry brought their son to meet Archbishop Desmond Tutu while they were on their tour of southern Africa. Archie was immediately friendly to Desmond, reaching out towards the legendary human rights activist and anti-apartheid leader, who smiled right back.

Proud mom Meghan beamed for the cameras before the family of three headed inside with Desmond and his daughter, Thandeka.

While they were inside the headquarters of the Desmond Tutu Legacy Foundation, Archie continued to delight everyone, giggling and bouncing up and down in Meghan's lap. He was wearing the cutest pair of overalls, and looked just like his dad at a similar age!

In July, Archie attended his first public outing as a royal when he and mom Duchess Meghan attended a charity polo match to watch Prince Harry compete against Prince William for a good cause. He adorably slept in his mom's arms for most of the time.

Archie Harrison was christened on July 6, and members of the Royal Family gathered to celebrate the momentous day!

The Duchess of Cornwall, Prince Charles, Doria Ragland, Lady Sarah McCorquodale, Lady Jane Fellowes, and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge joined Prince Harry, Duchess Meghan and their baby boy for a family portrait in Windsor Castle.

Just after his christening, new parents Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan shared a heartwarming black-and-white photo with Archie Harrison.

The dozing bundle of joy was sandwiched between his mom and dad, who looked lovingly at one another.

Royal watchers were overcome with excitement when Prince Harry and Meghan shared the first glimpse of Archie's little face on Father's Day. In the sepia-toned snap, their baby grasps onto his dad's finger, peeking his eyes and nose above Harry's hand.

Before the world had the chance to see Archie's adorable face, Duchess Meghan and Prince Harry shared a photo of his little feet in honour of Meghan's first Mother's Day as a mom herself.

Two days after Archie was born, Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan debuted him to the world at Windsor Castle. Following their brief and sweet appearance, they shared a photo to their official Instagram, showing the moment the Queen and Prince Philip met him for the first time. Meghan's mom, Doria Ragland, also smiled down on the baby boy.

In one of the first photos ever taken of the Sussex family on May 8, Duchess Meghan and Prince Harry look down lovingly onto Archie's tiny, sleeping face. The two debuted their bundle of joy at Windsor Castle on May 8, in lieu of the traditional Lindo Wing appearance the day of a royal child's birth.
