Kim Kardashian released the first picture of
her son Saint West to mark her late father Robert Kardashian's birthday on
Monday.
Writing a tribute to the lawyer on her
website KimKardashianWest.com the 35-year-old explained: '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 two-month-old is seen dressed in a simple cotton
vest, arms outstretched beside his head as he sleeps soundly on a white sheet.
February 22 would have been the 72nd birthday of the
grandfather Saint will never get to meet - OJ Simpson's lawyer Robert
Kardashian - and it is obviously a date Kim wanted to remember.
On her website she added a further tribute to the
patriarch of the Kardashian clan, who died from esophageal cancer in September
2003.
'Happy Birthday dad!' she wrote. 'I can't believe
you would have been 72 today.
'So much has gone on in our lives since you've been
gone, and I know you have been my guardian angel seeing everything unfold! I
love you and miss you so much!'
Kim and her husband Kanye West welcomed their son
back on December 5, but had not released any images of the infant's face until
now.
Kim previously teased fans by sharing a photo of
Saint's hand clutching the finger of his big sister North, two.
Kim captioned it: 'She said "He's my best
friend."'
Their reticence when it comes to Saint is perhaps a
surprise for the fame-loving pair.
Indeed viewers of Keeping Up With The Kardashians
were given an insight into every moment prior to Saint's arrival, from Kim's
distress over her initial failure to conceive, to her breaking the news of a
positive pregnancy test to her family, to the moment her waters broke.
Though this is the first time fans have seen Saint's
face, family friend Malika Haqq previously revealed she thought the infant
looked like his older sister, while Kim joked he was 'cute' - just like her.
During a livestream with her brother Rob Kardashian,
she said: 'He's so cute, you guys, you have no idea. He looks kinda like just
like me, don't you think?
'He's so cute - he looks just like me!'
Kim, Kanye and North were spotted out together in
West Hollywood on Sunday, shopping for baby furniture with their friends John
Legend and his pregnant wife Chrissy Teigen.
Kim delighted her fans by sharing a snapshot of
father and daughter sound asleep on furniture in posh baby boutique Bel
Bambini.
'So today we went baby shopping with @johnlegend
& @chrissyteigen Kanye & North were a little too quiet,' the reality
star captioned the photo. 'We found them passed out in the middle of the
store.'
Referencing Kanye's new album, which has just been
released on TIDAL, she added the hashtag: '#TheRealLifeOfPablo
