Blue Ivy Wears Crown, Beyonce Dotes on Daughter in Adorable Photos

 There's already a royal baby in our midst: Blue Ivy Carter! Via her Tumblr, Beyonce shared a slew of adorable new shots surrounding her 18-month-old daughter with Jay-Z. In one, the "Bow Down" singer's little wears (slightly off kilter!) a purple, faux-jewel-encrusted crown. In another, Blue is partially seen reclining in a stroller touching her mom's nose as Beyonce, 31, giggles and dotes on her little one while wearing a beehive hairdo, full makeup and a dramatic red gown.

Additional Blue-themed snapshots in Beyonce's latest collage include a toddler-sized princess dress on a hanger, and a grown-up woman's foot trying on pink high heels perfectly sized for Blue's age group.

Blue has been at her mom's side throughout her mother's massive Mrs. Carter World Tour. Unequivocally putting those second-pregnancy rumors to rest, the massive global undertaking, which was originally set to conclude in August, was recently extended through December, with dozens upon dozens of dates added in North and South America.

The Grammy winner recently took a breather from touring in the Big Apple -- hitting the June 17 10th anniversary bash for Jay-Z's 40/40 Club, where she salsa-danced with her husband, 43, showed off cell phone snaps of her daughter, and bonded with fellow diva Kylie Minogue
