Siblings {September 2015}
This is my first time joining in with the siblings link up. It’s one I’ve been really excited about joining in with since I first found out we were having Freddie!
So, as I have gushed about quite a lot already both on the blog and across social media, Arthur and Freddie are already best friends!
I had a lot of pregnancy guilt second time around and spent a lot of time worrying how Arthur would respond to having a baby brother. So far, it couldn’t have been any better. From their first hospital cuddles Arthur has absolutely adored Freddie.
Obviously, it’s sort of been one way traffic, however, I really feel like I see Freddie’s eyes light up when Arthur is around and I’m pretty sure Arthur will get the first smile!!
Arthur gives Freddie so much attention, I perhaps would like if he left him alone while he napped, but I’m sure Arthur will soon figure out that I’m free to play a lot more if Freddie stays asleep!!
Speaking of sleep, Freddie has actually become my secret weapon when it comes to waking Arthur up from his nap! ย Arthur has always been grumpy getting up from his nap, but since I’ve been waking him up with Freddie its been all change. ย Arthur is so happy to see his baby brother and gives a sleepy smile and then they have the loveliest cuddles. ย It is ridiculously cute!!
I am already absolutely loving sitting back and enjoying watching their relationship develop! We couldn’t be more proud of the way Arthur has just absolutely embraced the role of big brother! There has been no jealousy or resentment at all. Long may this continue! I hope I can be just as “gushy” and proud next month!!
Aww! This is so lovely to read ๐ I’m glad it’s going well! xxx

Don’t worry. In seven years time they’ll be fighting like cats and dogs ๐ not that I speak from bitter experience or anything… Still, it’s also great when they DO get on!!!
I love that you can now join in with Siblings and they look like the best of friends already. They’re both so gorgeous! x

Yay so excited to be joining in!!! Thanks Carie ๐ xx
I had the exact same worry when I knew I was pregnant again. Especially as he became jealous of bump but they have the most adorable bond like your two seem to have.

Ahh I’m glad it’s worked out well for you guys too!! The pregnancy guilt is so hard but I guess it makes it all the sweeter when you see the love!! X
Oh, so, so sweet! My girl was definitely my son’s favourite person when he was a baby – still is, I’m sure! Beautiful photos and moments captured x

Oh Chantelle these are absolutely STUNNING photos. My favourite siblings of the month for sure. Look how tiny Arthur looks in his cot. And how cute the look on Freddie’s face is in that bottom photo. Just so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so beautiful! x
Ahhh that’s so lovely of you to say Katie thanks so much!!! Xx
Those photos are just lovely, especially the last one! It is lovely to watch the bond develop. My little girl adored her brothers when she was a baby, and those first smiles were definitely aimed squarely at them, not me ๐
