The Hanover Boys

Without doubt one of the highlights of the last few days was when Daniel and Joshua met for the first time.

It seemed that over the last week Joshua had somehow worked out that something was afoot. He’d recently started lifting Lisa’s tops (hopefully a pastime he’ll grow out of!) to pat her tummy saying ‘baby, baby!’ And then the morning after Daniel had been born (but not yet home) when he got up, Joshua made his way from his cot to the crib we’ve put up in our room to look in saying ‘baby? baby?’ Somehow he knew things were about to change!

So when he finally met Daniel, it’s fair to say Joshua was well excited! With his incessant mantra of 'baby, baby, baby!' and his insatiable need to get as close as brotherly possible, he’s been lovely ever since – really affectionate and intrigued by this new arrival. Whether the novelty will wear off when he realises Daniel’s here to stay and competing for scarce resources, only time will tell!
