I came across ‘Siblings’ a linky on Along Came Cherry. Jess inspired me to join in and once a month capture my two little bambinos together. What a fabulous idea. She co-host the linky each month on the 10th with nine other bloggers.
It’s not an easy task to get pictures of my two together, I will admit as Buba hates the camera. So to stage gorgeous settings, and activities for them to do together and capture it is a challenge. But I love a good challenge so I will join the rest of the hosts and link up each month hoping to capture some awesome sibling moments.
This month my “Sibling” pictures are a little grainy and the lighting is horrible because the moment was there and I had to capture it with my iphone before it disappeared, as we all know they don’t come too often. I am blessed that my two get along great so far, I fear this stage won’t last long so I am soaking it up as much as possible.
Buba is constantly asking, “Give Missy Moo kisses?” and yes, he calls her Missy Moo now too, it’s hilarious. His hugs I have notice are getting a little bit tighter, in that loving big brother squeeze way. So I have to keep my eye on him. However, the other day I walked in the living room to find this:
I think they were plotting against Mommy and Daddy in hushed voices. Buba was attempting to teach Missy Moo what the mirror is for, I think I can foresee bathroom fights over the mirror already. “Look here, Missy Moo, that’s you.” Buba said.
I asked him if he loved his sister, his reply, “My Missy Moo!” and showered her with kisses. Enough said.
I hope they continue down this path of bonding and getting along. Buba at first didn’t really take notice there was a baby in the house. He left her alone completely, to which I am ever thankful for! It’s only now that she is trying to crawl, sit up and eat big people food like him that he is noticing her more and wanting to get involved with her. He brings her toys while she bounces in her bouncer, screams, “Mommy, Missy Moo crying, ” at the top of his lungs, when she is upset and I have left the room for a second. This week he even asked to help feed his sister her bottle, which I thought was so touching. “I do it, Mommy?” he asked inquisitively, as he shoved the bottle down his sister’s throat. oh dear …
Oh Jenny, how cute do they look together! It’s great when they start to interact more as siblings isn’t it? xx
Ya I love how much more they interact now. It’s so cute. Wish I could have more siblings for them!!!
Such a sweet set of photos. Totally adorable.
Hopefully the pictures to come will be clearer and better lighting but this moment was too cute and too rare. Excuse the dirty muslin next to MM she had mangoes for breakfast. Lol
What a cute little moment captured. It’s so true that you just have to grab a camera when these moments happen because it’s just too cute not too.
It sounds like their relationship is really growing now, it’s so exciting. My son was pretty disinterested in his baby sister too in the early days but now they are the best of friends. x
Thanks. I think it’s good when they don’t fret over new baby in the house. I have friends that struggle with that. We r blessed. Love ur linky.
Awww they are so sweet. I love your sons hair! x
Thank you!!! It’s hard to contain. it grows straight up and gets really afro type if I don’t keep it short. Not sure what his sisters will be like yet.
Aww they are very cute together.
Thank you! And thanks for stopping by from the linky and commenting. I have come across your blog before this linky and I really enjoy reading it. Your title cracks me up it is so me….flabby tummy tucked into my dresses and heels. lol hahaha love your sibling post as well.
Such cuties x
THank you for commenting, and stopping by. Hope to see more of you here. Off to check out your blog.
What lovely photos! My daughter wasn’t bothered about my little boy much when he was born (other than asking when he was going back!) but now they have an amazing bond. I look forward to seeing your pictures this year 🙂
Hopping over from the #siblings linky.
Thank you so much. I look forward to seeing your pics as well. Great linky. I hope they stay close now as they grow up together. Sometimes they can be complete enemies or best friends. I hope the latter for all of us. lol
I’m loving this linky already – such a lovely way to celebrate our children! x
Agreed….it’s a fabulous linky. So many beauties to cherish and love.
They are gorgeous together! I can see a very loving and protective big brother emerging 🙂 #PoCoLo
I hope you are so right. I had a protective big brother and it was the best. Thanks for commenting and stopping by. Love PoCoLo too. Off to check out your blog.
Awww bless they are so cute. What a great idea for a linky, might have to join in with that next week if, as you said, I can get them together long enough for a photo 🙂 #PoCoLo
Definitely join in…. it’s a great linky. I struggle to get happy posy pictures of both. Half of them will be one of them blurred because they never stop moving.
Oh they’re so cute together! I love it when you find them playing nicely together when you were least expecting it!
Yes I was just relieved the blankets weren’t over her face or she wasn’t cover with all the toys in the toys box…which has happened before. hahahaha Sibling love is a sweet thing.
Super cute photos! I can’t wait until we have two!
Visiting over from #PoCoLo
Yes it’s definitely more fun having two as watching them bond and grow together. Love it. Thanks for the PoCoLo love.
Haha Cherry loves trying to feed J, she always sneaks up and tries to give him some when I’ve got up! These are lovely photos, I love the first one, they look so cheeky! xx
I know it’s one of my favorite. I love photography I only wish I was better at it. These are poorly taken and excuse the muslin that’s missy moo had vomited mangoes all over right before picture. Hahaha but they moment was too rare and cute I can to capture it. Bad lighting dirty rags and all. I love seeing siblings try to help out with the littler ones. It’s so protective and caring!!! If I could have more kids I would!!!! Siblings are the best.
Aww, how sweet that he wants to take care of her – it’s lovely to watch that caring side develop. And definitely embrace the iphone shots!! The best memories are the ones on my iphone because it’s always easier/quicker to get a photo that way.
Yes they adore each other so much. She never takes her eyes off him either. Too cute. Only wish the lighting in my house was better. I have always loved photography but my pictures never turn out spectacular. Shame. Thanks for commenting and stopping by.
What lovely photos. It’s lovely to see how their relationship grows isn’t it. My son is very protective of his little sister and I am hoping it continues.
Oh I love a good protective big brother. I had them and I hope my son is that way towards his sister too. Love watching them grow together….so glad I had more than one baby. Makes me want more. lol
Your photos may be taken on your iphone but they have captured the moment all the same – Your children are playing happily together and obviously love each other. I love it 🙂
So true. But it is a little embarrassing when the muslin covered mangoes is in the background along with wipes and cream. Hahahahahahaha
A wonderfully sweet set of photos. They look so adorable together 🙂
#PoCoLo
Thank you so much for the PoCoLo love and stopping by. It was a moment I couldn’t let go by … bad lighting and all. lol They are getting really close and I love watching them bond.
That first picture is sooooooo adorable! Love it 🙂 xx
Thank you!! I know I was so worried Buba was going to cover his face when he saw my phone so I had to pretend I was texting and not taking a pic. He hates the camera unfortunately. Boo.
How cute are these two together, seriously! I adore that first photo. Too precious x
Thank you they really do get along so well so far. I am lucky. Hoping more of these moments to come!!!
Aaaa — when I see pics like this I WISH I’d had a big brother!! Just lovely 🙂 x
I have six old brothers and it was always like this times 3 but I knew I had to has at least two kids so they could experience sibling love. I only hope it always stays like this.
Such cute shots! Most of my great moments are captured in blurry cell phone pics too.
Thank you. I know there are all these fantastic photography mommies on blogs that I read, capturing these moments in clear amazing ways. I just wish I could do the same. But at least I catch them right? hahah
Aww, I love the last photo. They’re adorable x
Thank you. It definitely is one of my favorites.
