So here we are half way through the month and time for the Siblings Project hosted by Lucy at Dear Beautiful. In the past four weeks the girls have started playing more make-believe games and interacting a lot more without my help. Their favourite games are ‘holidays’ and ‘schools’, both initiated by Lili who is now becoming more imaginative with her games and Poppy is happy to join in. Usually Lili plays the ‘teacher’ and does the register, while Poppy shouts ‘yes’ after every name. They also like packing their little cases for ‘holidays’, of course when I say ‘pack’ I mean books and toys, not clothes or anything useful. I think my love of holidays is already starting to rub-off on them! They’re also enjoying running around the kitchen and still love playing hide and seek. They’re now able to really communicate with each other, which makes playing, as well as ‘falling out’ much easier.
This month the girls have had their hair cut which was much needed, Poppy now has a very cute little short bob, while Lili only agreed to a little trim but as it was only her third ever hair cut I was happy that she agreed to anything (the film Tangled has a lot to answer for!). We’ve also had the school bear stay with us, when Lili was named Star of the Week - which was a very exciting and proud day for us all. She’d been wanting this important award since she started school back in September!
Here are a few snaps I took of the girls on our bed last week. They were sat with me while I got ready for a day out and were getting on so well, happily giggling away and holding hands - so I thought I’d take advantage of the opportunity!
