EastEnders star Lacey Turner has shared the first photos of her baby daughter on Instagram – and they are the sweetest things we ever did see.
Lacey, who gave birth to Dusty Violet Kay in July, shared the "beautiful" pics from a professional newborn photoshoot yesterday (August 14), a few weeks after revealing the baby girl's unusual name.
In the photos, Dusty can be seen sleeping on a bed of flowers, swaddled in a violet blanket (geddit?), and dressed as a teeny-tiny teddy bear, so yes – they will be the most adorable images you'll see this week.
Shortly after Dusty's birth, Lacey and her husband Matt Kay spoke about the inspiration behind their first child's name, and admitted their choice gets a split reaction.
"Dusty's our little miracle – we call her Special Kay!" Lacey – who plays Stacey Fowler – told OK!. "It wasn't on our original list but we did an internet search for 'pretty girls' names' and we both said it at the same time!
"Her middle name is Violet, which I also love. We've had mixed reactions – people either think it's really cool or they don't really know what to say!"

Speaking about her break from Walford, Lacey said: "Stacey and Martin are planning to lay low and let the dust settle, but I'm sure they'll be in cahoots with the Slaters for updates.
"For now, Walford isn't safe for any of them so they had to vanish."
