Little Man seems to have had a growth spurt this month. I find them tricky to spot as I see him every day, but his trousers seem that bit shorter and several people have commented on his height to me. Yep, he’s shooting up and is quite a bit taller than most of his friends. This means that although Boo is also quite tall, as they run around and play together, their age gap seems so much smaller.
The near three year age gap is barely discernible when they play together. They each get to choose what to play, both of them inputting into whatever world it is that they are creating and both of them giggling as much as the other. But Little Man still knows he’s the ‘baby’ and plays on it whenever he can, and Boo still knows she’s the big sister and enjoys telling him off whenever she sees the need! As it’s the Easter holidays, they are loving being together all of the time at the moment and play and chat away to each other from morning ’til night.
This month’s photos were taken at Warwick Castle. We’re fortunate to be Warwick Castle Ambassadors this year, so we went along last weekend and had a brilliant day out there. There was actual sunshine so we had a picnic, the kids ran about and explored everywhere and we sat around in the sun watching the Horrible Histories live show, which was my personal highlight of the trip – I love those books!
Boo aged 7 years and 6 months old and Little Man 4 years and 7 months old. Love them.
Oh I love the shot of them looking at each other – what a gorgeous happy picture. I know what you mean about height reducing the age gap – my littlest two look even nearer in age than they are because Pip is really tall and Elma is only tall!
Ah yes, that’ll close the gap!
What lovely smiles! I love the relationship between your pair and fab that the age gap doesn’t seem too big between them. My Monkey is the same as your little man in the height stakes, and he never seems to stop growing! With ours though it seems to make the age gap seem bigger as LM is a lot more diddy! Xx
Ah, both of mine are tall ones! Thank you, they do get on very well x
Oh wow they look so alike on these pictures and so happy together. Little Man will have to be Big Man soon…he does look more grown up! xx #siblingsproject
I can never see the similarity, I know, it’s weird! Yes, I might need to change that! x
They look so happy and so similar now too!
Ah, thank you! x
I would never have guessed there was 3 years between them. Lovely photos. I must take a look at Warwick Castle as we have never been xx
He does seem to be closing that gap, and my girl’s not small! Oh yes, well worth a look, we love it there x
Gorgeous photos. It is lovely how the age gap seems to disappear and they just enjoy playing together. I love the photo where Little Man and Boo are looking at each other 🙂 #siblingsproject
The age gap does seem to shrink all the time as they play and chat so happily together. Thank you x
Ah that one of them looking at each other is so cute x
Ah, thank you x
Aww what lovely photos of them both. They are both changing in so many ways. I love the photo of them looking at each other. They look so happy x
Thank you. They’re always happy! x
Warwick castle sounds lovely and so great you get to be ambassadors and got the sunshine to experience it to it’s fullest. This is so lovely. Great sunny sibling snaps this month. #siblingsproject
It’s a brilliant place to visit, and yes, it was so sunny, too! Thanks x
They look so much alike in these pictures! x
I can’t see it, I know I must be blind! x
