arthur, have you heard anything about the young couple having left bucklebury this morning mo?makes sense to come nearer to the hospital. once the labor pains start you want to be getting here as soon as possible. it would be an over hour's drive from bucklebury just 10 minutes from the clarett house to get here. this will be the place where this new baby, this prince or princess will be born because everybody is sit up for her here. she is familiar with the place. she has met everybody. the staff are all on standby and this is where it is going to happen. martha: you know, obviously prince charles was in the delivery room when prince william was born and you photographed the family when they came out of the lindo wing which they're comically referring to as the limbo wing in some quarters. this is a very modern couple and no doubt william will play a very large role in being daddy here which is not the way the royals did it a couple generations ago. >> well, even one generation ago. william will be changing the napm ys and doing the feeds. of course he is a very modern man and

serious speculation about where they might go after the hospital and they've headed right out to buckleburyo the middleton family compound that's a $6 million mansion 50 miles from london. it was long assumed that kate would want to learn the mommy trade from her own mother who loves the rituals of childhood. they made a business around the bits and pieces needed around kids' parties. the fans made the couple happy with prince william joking that his newborn son has more hair than he does and saying the baby got his mother's looks. speaking of the mother's could beings, when the duchess wears something, it tends to sell out right away. this dress generated so much interest yesterday, it crashed the company website. it's hard to tell who a newborn looks generally like. this one is most famous for his little fingers that almost looked like they were trying to master the royal wave as he was presented to the world last night and we don't know whether we continue to practice his grnd mother -- great grandmother, the queen today, we don't know how long they will be decamped to bucklebury to the

charlie d'agata is in bucklebury england. good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you.n spending the last day as the palace puts it getting to know each other better. >> george alexander louis may be a big name for a little boy. that's how royals go. they usually go for four names or more. he may reign as king george vii when he is on the throne one day. he will be known as prince george, the royal hinness. whether it was the couple's favorite back then may only be known to close friends. william and kate came to a relatively quick decision yesterday. it took a week before william himself was named. the announcement came shortly after the queen met her great grandson and heir at kensington palace suggesting the name meets her majesty's approval. george is seen as a tribute to the queen's father king george vi who inspired a nation through world war ii. his battle to conquer a severe studder was dram advertisedtize advertised in the movie "the kings speech." historians believe securing the crown for three generations would be a job well done for the current monarch. >> t

princess kate is relaxing an hour away in bucklebury.other told friends the baby could be a leo. and tourists are filing into souvenir shops. >> it's easy to pick up items of the duke and duchess together but little mention of the royal baby. they are holding off on the merchandise out of superstition it is bad luck. once the baby is born they will fill the stores. consumers are expected to spend $400 million. >> waiting for the right thing. >> in the meantime those who can want wait can go to the hotel for about $90, visitors can enjoy an afternoon high tea with pastries and an exhibit featuring royal family photos. >> the central photo is this one taken in anticipation of the next royal child. i'm danielle lee, nbc news. >>> we'll be right back. >>> welcome back. continue to monitor the zimmerman verdict protest going on in hollywood right now. this is hollywood near wilcox. as you can see a hundred or so protesters there. and on either side of the street they're on you can see a line of police officers. we have not heard any reports o

for this little baby so it's expected that this little boy could be seen on the streets here in buckleburyxt few months or in the years to come. patti ann: all right. thank you. rick: looks like a nice party there. the birth of an heir to the british throne getting the attention of all sorts of well wishers, even from some famous fictional characters. >> this is exciting. kate is a mommy. prince william is a daddy and there's a new royal baby boy. >> it's wonderful, piggy. congratulations. >> it makes you want to have a child of your own, doesn't it, kermie? >> not really. rick: they happen to be in town for the royal birth. while they try to sort all of that out, we'll continue to keep an eye on things in london where we could get our first glimpse of the new prince any moment. we'll have it for you. patti ann: the big doping scandal rocking baseball. one of the game's biggest star $ banned for the rest of the scene. he's admitting to what he says were some mistakes. which big names could be next? and would they get hit with lifetime bans? also what would certainly make black beard jealou

four days after birth, the witness -- george alexander louie and his parents are in her hometown, buckleburyving quiet time together. >> i don't know how quiet it is with a brand-new baby. >> queen elizabeth paid a visit to the newborn on wednesday. he is now third in line to the crown. the name was one of the favorites with 2-1 odds with millions of bookmakers. they were betting on hair color, time of birth. >> it's a boy. the acronym is g.a.l. >>> coming up. under the sea. we are going to take you inside a 200-year-old shipwreck off the coast of texas. very cool indeed. we'll be back. we used to live with a bear. [growl] we'd always have to go everywhere with it. get in the front. we drive. it was so embarrasing that we just wanted to say, well, go away. shoo bear. but we can't really tell bears what to do. moooooommmmmm!!! then one day, it was just gone. mom!

i think they'll probably spend a couple days here and head down to bucklebury for that seclusion thathe middletons' home offers them. >> we've been hearing that kate does not want a nanny. all new mothers think they can do it at first, but then they realize the intensity of raising this little being that needs you at all hours. do you think they're going to need a little more help? >> reporter: of course, they are. i was the same when we had kids. also, all the public wants to know -- people want to see them together, this couple as well. they're not always going to want the baby with them. and if they are going to hand the baby over, they're going to want someone consistent and someone that nose and committed to the baby. i do think it's a fantastic nannying job coming up. working for a prince and you're not going to be working very hard because of the parents. >> there's a few people brushing up their resumes right now. max foster, you've done a stellar job for us. we've learned so much from your point of view and from where you've been on the ground there. especially moving to kens

prince harry paid a visit to see prince george today, and the royal couple reportedly took him to bucklebury, where kate's parents live. max foster has been covering this story practically since conception. it's interesting that george was the queen's father's name, one of the prince charles' names, and a name that's very popular, so i think it works all around. >> they speak to the queen and get her approval in i'm sure simply because he always refers to her. now they're trying to bond as a family. >> the third name about spelled louis, but produce nounced louie. why? >> there's some french roots to it, and that's the way we say it over here. they may choose to call him louis, so he did you certainly for now he's prince george. >> fascinating. we are still learning your ways there, max. thank you so much. let's talk more about that first name, george, an illustrious name. we owe a debt of gratitude to many famous georges for many things we value most from america itself all the way to -- george washington, george clooney, george burns, george jones, george michael, george clinton. george bu

in bucklebury. christmas of that year, how different was it?spend christmas with her family so she could relax and put her feet up, which isn't something that happens in royal residence. >> but even christmas had its complications. when you're part of the world's most famous family, what do you get the royal who has everything? >> well, the answer to that question is something small, preferably hand made. and if you can inject humor into it, all the better. she had taken up jam making. it was something she enjoyed doing. so she would jar up her jam and she gave pots of preserves to the family members, which went down i think very, very well. >> back home, more domestic bliss. though william has never claimed any of the credit. >> i would say i'm getting better cooking. kate would say i'm getting a lot worse. i get quite lazy about cooking, because when i come back from work it's the last thing i want to do. but when i was trying to impress kate, i was trying to cook these fancy meals and would catch it on fire. >> as her pregnancy progressed, k

and she didn't come back from bucklebury until the 19th. seems like it would make sense they would decide, you know what? when your due date arrives, we will drive back into town and you go to kensington palace to wait closer to the hospital for the baby to be born. from everything we've been able to surmise, this baby is only a few days late, maybe two or three days late. >> interesting. martha maccallum, keep us posted. thanks so much. >> will do, thanks. jon: right now there is word of a disturbing new breakdown at the government agency responsible for protecting federal judges, overseeing the federal witness protection program and tracking down fugitives as well. the sj reports that the -- "the wall street journal" reports that the u.s. marshal as service lost track of 2,000 encrypted the two-way radios worth millions of daughters. steve centanni is live in washington. what do we know how this happened, steve? >> reporter: according to an internal report obtained by the "wall street journal" the marshals knew about this problem as early
