I love Mariska’s hair. She looks so great with short hair.
That last pic of them is very cute.
babyboopie on
oh he is really beautiful- reminds me so much of my son Pie when he was 2years old, the same laugh and the same eyes. It’s scary cos I feel like I’m looking at a morphed image of my son!
Carol on
Oh my goodness. He is quite possibly the most gorgeous child I’ve ever seen. He looks so much like her.
Laura on
Oh my goodness he’s so cute! Love the last photo especially!
Gussy on
He is so adorable. he looks JUST like her!
Misti on
Does anyone know where she got that jacket? I love the two tone.
belle on
This family is blessed with great genes. They’re incredibly gorgeous, just like Mariska’s mother.
Melanie on
I love that last photo of the two of them, it’s so beautiful and natural. I used to think that August looked like his dad but I saw her ‘True Hollywod Story’ the other day and he looks alot like Mariska’s childhood photos aswell. He’s a perfect and unique blend of both his parents, I think!
Ariane on
He is so cute I smell heart-breaker when he grows up
Mary on
What wonderful pictures! He is just the cutest little person. I love how their clothes match and his little hat is just precious. Sometimes I wonder if the celebrities actually keep copies of the paparazzi pics, I would keep these if I was Mariska Hargitay. I just love her and her little family to pieces!
Lux on
That last picture is just too cute for words! To me August looks a little older than he actually is, I thought he was 3 at first. He’s adorable either way, and Mariska is a doll; so pretty!
Shawna on
Wow, definitely a resemblance! They even have the same haircut! LOL He is totally adorable.
Kodie on
He is so stinking cute!!
luckymurre on
I think August looks just like his grandmother, Jayne Mansfield!
katie on
can they get any sweeter? i was recently at the park with my 2 year old maddie and mariska, peter, and august were there. they could not have been any nicer, more normal or down to earth. no nanny. peter was taking pictures of them the whole time. at one point mariska intentionally fell of the tire swing and august could stop laughing 
Emily on
Oh my gosh, what a big boy!!! Thanks for posting these.
Amy on
Hands down, the cutest kid I’ve ever seen. LOVE THEM!
nona on
Oh my gosh, they’re dressed alike in the last two photos, down to the striped pants!
Gorgeous kid, beautiful family.
Kristina S. on
Does anyone recognize the company that makes his hat? SO cute! Since he’s close in age with my son at 22 months, I would love to find a hat like that that fits. Usually they always run small for younger babies. Thanks a bunch!
Vicky24c on
OMG he is just so cute! He has to be the cutest baby boy ever!
Plus its fab to Se August and Chris Meloni’s kids all on set!
Philippa on
he’s so beautiful. really gorgeous little boy!
Natasha on
I think he’s just the perfect mix, I see so much of his mom AND dad in him (both are very gorgeous people too)
fropy on
They look SO much alike.
melanie on

August is hands-down the most gorgeous baby!! He most devoted parents who dote on him every second, as a result he an extremely happy kid! Thanks for posting CBB I absolutley adore the family! And thanks Katie for sharing your sighting, I just love hearing about them!
FC on
Oh, my goodness, he’s so freakin’ adorable! I just love this little boy! I’ve missed seeing photos of him, and this makes me want more! I love his little smile. August has such a sweet disposition to him.
I want him! 
And that last photo of him and Mariska is just darling!
Beverley on
I love seeing pictures of this little cutie-pie and his parents. So loving.
Wouldn’t it be cute for August to marry Suri Cruise. Just imagine how cute those babies would be!
Mel on
Dear Santa,
For xmas I want one that looks just like that!
This is the cuteset child I have ever seen
Michelle on
Look at that smile in the first picture! Could he be any cuter? And the last one of them is so sweet. As everyone else has said, he is a wonderful mix of both of his parents. He is just gorgeous. Mariska and Peter always seem so down to earth and hands on with August. They are definately one of my favorite celebrity families.
Kayla on
I think he is by far the cuttest celebrity baby boy I have ever seen. He looks so much like Mariska and Peter.
Rebecca on
What a beautiful child!
Mary on
August is absolutely gorgeous! He’s gonna be such a heartbreaker when he gets older.
trinh on
i’ve said it before, and i will say it every time: most BEAUTIFUL celebrity baby, ever!
Stunning child…and definitely comes from a beautiful gene pool. He is going to be extremely handsome when he gets older.
Mariskaluver44 on
August is definitly going to be a popular cutie when he grows up. He has the best of both genes. He looks so much like the both of them.
I love mariska’s hair.
August has her hair
xD
Klaire on
I love her hair at that length, not so short like it was before.It fits her so well.And her son is so cute and he looks exactly like her,its insane.
brooke on
Now that is a cute kid, he looks just like his mommy IMO. What beautiful eyes and hair, very cute little boy he is
dian on
Gorgeous Kid. Beautiful Mom.
Matter of Fact Both His Parents are Gorgeous
August is a beautiful/handsome little kid, he looks so much like both of them, but here he is just Mariska when little.
That second picture is so nice. Nice to hear they are hands on parents and not to dependant on nanny’s.
Bess on
Every time I see August I freak out because he is a brown-haired version of my son (my boy has white blonde hair, same shaggy hairstyle) and for a split second I think that someone has put pictures of my son on the internet! I’ve even had calls from friends who visit this site saying how crazy the resemblance is- it’s how I found CBB!
Obviously I think August is gorgeous, and that last picture is priceless
Natasha on
Bess if you’d be up to it I’d love to see a photo of your son. Its not that I don’t believe you I’d just like to see it with my own eyes! I bet he’s beautiful!
Carrie on
I always loved her. So normal and low key. The husband is handsome too and I think August has his eyes.. it’s uncanny. It’s neat to see kids grow up and who they end up favoring looks wise. Regardless they look close and happy and that’s most important. Great photos. It would be cool if she had another little one for August to play with:)
Emily on
I love the look on her face in all of these. You can see that she is totally in love with her boy and she looks so content. What a great family.
Amanda on
He is definitely my fav celebrity baby – SOOO sweet and cute – and his mom is my favorite. It’s because of her if I have a daughter I’m going to name my child Olivia after her character on Law & Order.. she is SUCH a great mom and Peter is a great dad. I think he is a good mix of both of them. Chris Meloni said that August can already figure out an arubics cube in Peoples Most Beautiful (Mariska is in the list). That’s insane! But they’re both smart (Peter apparently can speak 9 languages according to Chris!) and August is being raised really well so I could believe it. LOVE this family!
rose on
oh god he looks just like her
Daisy Kay on
When I look at pics of this beautiful child, I see his father’s eyes, his mother’s eyebrows, nose and lips, and there is something that reminds me of Mariska’s dad.
D'Anna on
wow, he is gorgeous!
Glamour Diva on
Am I crazy or does he look a lot like his Mama AND Grandmother! In that second picture he really looks so much like Jayne Mansfield…same head tilt, same smile, same eyes! Witness the power of genetics people! LOL
Nicka on
I love this family!!! They look so happy and in love with each other. August looked so much like his daddy when he was born, now he really looks like both of them. I am so happy for Mariska and she looks so beautiful!!!
Taylor on
This baby is so beautiful. Does he take a bad picture? That last picture is to die for… makes me want to have a baby right now if he can look anything like him. Ahhh and as always Mariska Hargitay is gorgeous!
Sue on
Oh my God! Could those two be any cuter or look any happier? These are just heart-warming feel good photos. And he is a little mini-me or what? Absolutely adorable…both of them.
shannon on
I love these pictures of them. I hope to see more photos of this family. They always look so happy in every photo. Definitely a lot of love in this family.
aNA on

"I had to make a decision that I could sleep with every night. I did feel responsible for the young girls who I probably confused and let down. I apologize for that. But I wasn't trying to glamorize teen pregnancy."
