After toppling Tony Abbott late Monday night, Malcolm Turnbull was sworn in as the 29th prime minister of Australia. But no-one really cared because we were too busy swooning over his adorable grandson.
Australia, meet Jack Turnbull-Brown.
He's Malcolm Turnbull's first grandchild, and the son of Turnbull's daughter Daisy and her husband James Brown.

Nearly two years later, his grandfather was taking the oath of office, and you could hear little Jack in the background laughing and singing to himself.
And it didn't go unnoticed.
Love how Malcolm's baby grandson was happily gurgling away in background while Poppa was being sworn in as Aussie PM https://t.co/D1eRqNxQFt
*Love* that Malcolm Turnbull's young grandson is having a good ol' chat while his grandpa is being sworn in.
Then he raced out of the door into his grandfather's arms and even the most hardened political cynics did a bit of a squee.
oh my word that was adorable. Turnbull's grandson grins and runs towards the new MP #libspill
After a cruel, ruthless 24 hours in parliament, the press gallery journalists were ready for some cuteness.
Hooray! MR Turnbull's gorgeous grandson Jack is at Govt House for the swearing in.

It was hard to get our priorities straight.
Historic moment, etc. etc. But ahhhhhhhhh Jack Alexander Turnbull-Brown is so cute I cannot handle it!
As with any new celebrity thrust into the public spotlight, there was bound to be critique of his fashion choices. Luckily he passed with flying (neutral) colours.

Some even started making comparisons to other famous toddlers.
Australia's answer to Prince George? https://t.co/pboCsFaYJ6
Prince George has done wonders for the popularity for the monarchy, so we'll just have to wait and see if Jack can do the same for his famous republican grandfather.
