Well, the first two weeks of the year shot past didn’t they! The first ‘Siblings’ post of the year crept up on me and left me pretty unprepared! For all the video footage i’ve been taking I’ve managed not to take a single nice photo of the kids together on their own so far this… Read More
It’s been a huge fail on the ‘get a nice set of siblings photos’ this month, so this is a collection of photos from our weekend away last week and two are phone photos so awful quality! Anyway, these two are still close as ever, welcoming each other after school with hugs and sometimes if… Read More
The dynamic between these two hasn’t changed a lot in the past month if I’m honest, they’re still thick as thieves. From first thing in the morning when they arrive in our bedroom clutching their blankets and a variety of cuddly toys to last thing at night when Athena signs a lullaby to Arlo. It… Read More
Isn’t it odd that only a few days away from your kids can highlight just how fast they grow and change? After just under a week away Athena seemed taller and more confident (though hard to believe she could get any more confident) and Arlo was chatting more and called me Lauren instead of Mummy!… Read More
This months picture had to be a starting school one really! Plus with the whole starting school thing we’ve not really been anywhere too exciting to take more thrilling photos! This was Athena’s ‘first day’ photo, with Arlo alongside her. In all honesty not a lot has changed between these two over the past month,… Read More
Arlo loves Athena. She is more or less the only person he will listen to, often I have to get her to ask him to do something to get it to happen. They’re mostly the best of friends with a few little tiffs here and there, which are easily forgotten. He really looks up to… Read More
Fighting like cats and dogs pretty much describes these two at the moment. Not all the time, but a lot of it. There has even been a bit of blood drawn, though I think that was an accident. The latest thing seems to be arguments over who is sat on me, or closest to me.… Read More
Joined at the hip is more or less the only way to describe these two this month. There are tears from Arlo if Athena heads into the bathroom and closes the door, which she only does because we’re trying to teach her about privacy, not necessarily within her family but as a general rule –… Read More
A couple of weeks before we went away for a week Sam slaved over building a bunk bed for these two, and they spent two nights in their room together before we went away. I was expecting tears and to be sitting in the dark waiting for Arlo to drop off to sleep as I… Read More
I know this photo isn’t the normal sort of photo I share for our monthly Siblings posts, but it sums these two up over the past month… running away from me & causing havoc. Either trying to get into something they shouldn’t, get hold of something they shouldn’t or generally just not listening to me!… Read More
