LONDON - A small batch of photographs from Kate Middleton's early years have hit the Web, giving the world a glimpse of the soon-to-be royal's early years.

The five pictures from the Middleton family album show her as a pigtailed toddler, a smiling child, on vacation with her family and graduating from St. Andrew's University in Scotland.

The last photo shows Middleton with her arm around Prince William, who she's engaged to marry on April 29 at London's Westminster Abbey.

The pictures have been posted to the couple's newly minted wedding site, which has already attracted nearly 2 million hits since it launched last week.

Also posted to the site Monday was Middleton's biography -- revealing that her hobbies include hill walking, swimming, sailing, and photography.
