Yep, Buzz lightyear, Bob the builder, Postman Pat & Spiderman tops and any bottoms with 2 legs and a boy kiddy character on it! From about 2, Jade hated dresses and girly things..........I feel like I have 2 boys but atleast she was/is laid back!

I don't have many girly picks of her at all, only when she was a baby! x

I have 5 years betwen my eldest 2 and 17 months between the 2nd and third and 19 months between the 3rd and 4th, my youngest is now 3 and will be 3 and a half when this one is fully cooked!

The large age gap was nice with the first two as i had more quality time with the eldest til he was born and quality time with the baby as the eldest was at school, with the others it was hard work while they were little but worth every minute and they are growing up together and have very strong relationships with each other.

I think once you've had 2 it doesn't make a huge difference anyway lol

My daughter and son are 18 months apart. Obviously got pregnant when my daughter was 9 months old.

The first year was quite difficult with my son being a baby and my girl a toddler, both in diapers, both needy, etc. But the fantastic thing was when my son started crawling and then walking, then they amused each other and played and I had a bit more time to do things.

As for routine though, it's tough especially with businesses etc. Routines just kind of went out the door, especially when I needed to make business calls, deal with employees, etc. And it added stress to my parenting.

I don't regret having them close in age though as they get along fantastic and are quite close.

It certainly will be interesting how they will react to a new baby brother.

Actually, your last sentence did ring a bit true for me. Somehow, you miss out on one or the other's developmental stages because of the stress of dealing with two young ones and being so busy that you can't just sit back, relax and watch.
