The "O-lads"

When I had JJ Oli was a stinker, he didn't want JJ anywhere near him and would say "no baby" every time I brought him close. Here's about the best picture I got of them both for a while:

So this time, with baby Eli, I was really hoping that the boys would love him. Well they do, too much! All day Oli constantly asks me if he can hold Eli, hug him, kiss him. He cries when Eli is feeding because he wants to be holding him. And whilst I love how much these kids adore their younger brother, it was almost easier when the new baby was being left alone! Poor Eli gets jostled around all day and has learnt to just let it happen, bless his heart. I have to remember that I wished for this, and in the end I'm glad they're friends!!
