My grandma got Finley that purse for Christmas and she loves to carry it around. Such a little lady. Of course, she does it while sitting on a skateboard. I guess that's life when you have three older brothers. Speaking of having three older brothers, it will be interesting to see what her life will be like as she gets older. I have one sister who is seven years younger, so I couldn't be more unfamiliar with these dynamics. I did always want an older brother, though, so Finley has my dream come true.
How many siblings did you have? What order are you? Did you love it or hate it? I think a whole post on birth order is in order.
I always love your children's styles put your pictures are great too! Love the one on the skateboard.
ReplyDeleteI've been looking for a little purse for my 21 m.o.-I know she'd love to carry it around. But like yours, she'd probably fill it with cars and trains, since she's got 2 older brothers!
ReplyDeleteI'm fascinated by birth order, too. I'm the oldest of three girls, and I'm constantly trying to compare my birth family with my own three kids. But since I've got 2 boys and a girl, I know that gender affects things,too.
I read a post somewhere recently (I can't remember where now...brainfogzzzzzzz) the gist of which was something like, with your first child, you are super cautious and careful about everything and by the time number three (or four!) comes along, you relax a lot. So no wonder there are differences in temperament between first borns and later borns! I kinda agree!
ReplyDelete(I'm a first born, and WAY more uptight than my youngest sister).
Anyway...cute outfit, cuter paring of skateboard + purse. Very post modern.
she looks totally cute! Lily likes carrying her purse around too. they are such little ladies. :)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness- love that banner!!

P.S. I love birth order- all of my children are SPOT ON. Actually, Ivy (as the fourth) tends to go between the "baby" and like a new 1st born, which I hear is common!
ReplyDeleteI just had 1 younger brother 3 years younger than me and we don't have the best relationship.

ahhh, so cute. i love the pop of color from her shoes. and she looks adorable in headbands! and please, where did you/how did you make the letters for the banner?
ReplyDeletebirth order is so interesting, i think it really gives personality to each child. i'm one of six! and right in the middle. so of course, i have the best birth order, i'm the favorite. ;) ha!
Love that Finley is holding a purse on a skateboard! I can totally relate. I grew up as the only girl in our house(I have a half sister who's 9 years older and lived mostly with her mom) right in between two boys. Being the only girl in between two boys was interesting. Throw in the dynamic of only being 11 months younger than my older brother and the lines got blurred sometimes between being middle child to kind of twin like. So I'm not too sure how birth order affects me. It's pretty obvious and cut and dry with my two girls though!
ReplyDeleteFinley is so sweet with her purse and yellow shoes. Did you make the fabric banner? Love that!! I am one of four children. Three girls and my brother, the baby. ;) I am second oldest however there is six years between my younger siblings and I. Birth order is very interesting!!
ReplyDeleteFor the longest time I have thought your husband reminded me of someone I just couldn't fiqure out who!
ReplyDeleteWell it just hit me

Sadly I dont know the actors real name, my husband keeps track of those things and he's not home right now.
That little bunting banner is adorable!
ReplyDeleteFinley look so cute on the skateboard, like a little doll!
ReplyDeleteReally nice banner too!
finley is amazingly adorable!! i love her little banner :)
ReplyDeletei am pretty interested in birth order lately too as i watch my kids grow and change and become their own little free thinking people. in our home we have 2 teenages, a grade schooler, a preschooler and the baby so the birth order mixed with the huge range in ages makes life pretty interesting... in a great way of course!
xo,

Oh Finley how I've missed you! How cute is she! I love the banner, did you make that?
ReplyDeleteI could not get my kids to sit still long enough to take photos this week!I definitely think birth orders matters...I was an only child. My two boys are just so different from each other. She is just so incredibly adorable!!
ReplyDeleteOkay the headband looks really really cute on Finley! I would have never guessed. I might have to steal one of those pics to put on my blog or on Etsy!
ReplyDeleteAlso the banner with her name is so cute I want to cry.
Great small style edition! I keep meaning to post some of Sailor and then forget. Next week for sure!
my brother is 6 years younger which is a loooooooot as a child!
ReplyDeletewas always clear to not have the same...if possible!
cool stripey shirt!
Hey friend. I really should link up sometime and put pics of niece, since I'm childless. My niece is so adorable and just got picked up for modeling. We are going to Hollywood in June!
ReplyDeleteI'm the youngest of two. Just one older brother. Until highschool when I had a foster sister moved in who was also 3 yrs older than me. But we are family now. :) she is the mom of the niece I mentioned above!
We really should catch up sometime soon!
Miss Finley is looking older than she did those few short weeks ago when I first found your blog, and adorable as always. Tatum xx
ReplyDeleteSeeing Finley on the skateboard with the purse is such a great capture! It makes me wonder if she'll be a girly girl, a girl with the same interests as her brothers, or somewhere right in-between. And I guess that rolls right into your mentioning birth order. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm 18 years older than my little brother... So I was essentially an only child. I hated it and always wanted big brothers like Finley has!
oh believe me... having a big brother wasn't as fun as people without one think it could be. they are very mean to their little sisters usually! at least, that's my story. i'm the middle child and the only girl, which i happen to like. i had plenty of girl friends growing up so i didn't feel like i needed a sister. my brother was 5 years older so we didn't hang out much. i bossed my younger brother around too but we did get along sometimes!
ReplyDeleteOh I wanted to say, I'm sure your little boys are great with their baby sister. My brother just happened to have behavioral issues and just picked on me a lot. We are close now though and love each other so it's all good!
ReplyDeleteAw, she's just too cute!
