(As I was writing this, my husband said to me sarcastically "oh yes, because we could do with another bowl." I like nice things, ok?!).

Monkey & Mole
I do love Instagram. You come across so many lovely, talented people and here is one of them.....
I am so happy I stumbled across Monkey And Mole. Otto is now the owner of the most beautiful pair of the softest leather, sea-green moccasins. I cannot tell you enough how much I love these little shoes. I ordered a slightly larger size for when he's crawling and taking those first steps, but seeing as they stay on his feet so well (and how many baby shoes do?) he is wearing them all the time.
Chrissy (the clever lady behind Monkey And Mole) even makes moccasin-style sandals, such a genius idea and a must have for little summer toes.
Ordering is easy - there is a size chart which can be printed out to get the fit just right. Sizes range from 0-10, so older toddlers can wear them too. Great for around the house and light outdoor use. They come in a range of delicious colours.

Otto's amazing tights are by Kidscase and we got them from 1965 Kids.

Boys & Bunkbeds
.jpg)
I took these pictures of the boys (I like saying 'the boys'!) larking about on Bertie's new bunkbeds. It has taken pretty much all of his four years to finally start sleeping through the night and not venture into our bed at around midnight. Hoo-rah! Not that it wasn't nice, but you know....
When we moved house again at the end of November (did I even tell you that we moved about a month after having Otto? Yes we're slightly mad!). Well, we finally found a home that we could all fit into - too good an opportunity to miss in the area that we live in. So as well as having a garden and a garage (yay - somewhere for the cargo bike to live), Bertie now has a decent sized bedroom, where one day, Otto will join him. Hence the bunkbeds. I'll do a little tour soon as it's looking rather nice :)
Anyway, this afternoon, Otto lay on Bertie's bed and got extremely excited looking at the slats above him....must have been the contrast between the wood and mattress. His little arms were flapping around like a bird! Bertie clambered around showing him his various soft toys whilst I tried to prevent him from crushing his baby brother in the process (daily occurence). At what age will he become more aware of others and less egocentric? Never you say? Oh.
See you soon.
See you soon.
Otto At Four Months
At the moment, Otto is very interested in holding toys and exploring textures - he keeps trying to swipe my food, so I don't think it will be long before he has a little taster of something other than breast milk. He's also trying to sit up, and I don't think it will be long either. Most of all he loves to be held (pretty much all day) and cuddled and kissed. He's a very sweet-natured little boy and I can already tell he's going to be a lovely person.
