Enough about the terrible twos! What about the hectic ones?

During his tour of Malta this weekend, Prince William opened up about his 14-month-old son he shares with the beautiful Kate Middleton.

Turns out Prince George is quite the demanding little baby!

"He's busy. They're very hectic at that age," he told a visitor hoping to spot the Royal family member. "You can come and do some babysitting for me."

As Prince William explored Malta throughout the weekend, Middleton stayed home with the boy. Although she had hoped to make the trip, the expectant mom was asked by her doctors to rest as she suffers from Hyperemesis Gravidarum, or severe pregnancy sickness.

"I'm sorry you've got me instead of Catherine," Prince William joked Saturday afternoon to hundreds of onlookers. "She's very disappointed she couldn't make it today."  

 When asked by a visitor how his wife was currently feeling, he replied, "She's so-so."

There was one good thing that came out of Middleton's decision to stay home. After he toured San Anton Palace, Prince William joked that the fancy décor would be quite the distraction for his little boy.

"Malta may not survive baby George," the Duke joked. "There are a lot of precious things here." Gotta love a curious baby!

During the jam-packed trip, William met with the President of Malta. He also attended a service at Malta's St. John's Cathedral and enjoyed a boat tour of its Grand Harbour.

The royal couple recently announced that they were expecting another child next year.

"Their Royal Highnesses, The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, are very pleased to announce that the Duchess of Cambridge is expecting their second child," Clarence House said in a statement Sept. 8. "The Queen and members of both families are delighted with the news."

We're hoping Kate will feel better soon!
