My son got this cool rhino shirt from Le Petit Society which I love. I often put this shirt on him because both my son and I love it, but also it’s very soft and cute! Who said boy clothes are not cute? After 5 years of dressing my oldest and younger girls in pink, pink and more pink and frills (thank goodness they grew out of that phase), it was very refreshing to see other earthy colors displayed in my son’s wardrobe. Le Petit Society does a great job with boy clothes designs. By the way, if you meet the minimum order of HK$1,200 (about US$155), the standard shipping becomes free for the selected countries. Please check here for more details.
I spend a lot of time with my son especially since this past June. From my own experience, I see many advantages for kids who grow up as the youngest child in a family. My third gets a lot of attention for being the youngest. On top of that, my husband and I have become more experienced as a parent and have definitely learned from our past mistakes, thus we seem to do a better job by the third one came.
One very typical example of how parents focus more on their first child which many people can relate is the photo albums of children. I have created photo albums for my oldest daughter up to she was 3 years old. That’s actually not that good. Then came my second daughter, who only has like a half an album. Not even one complete album! Yikes.
Then, how many printed albums does my youngest have? ZERO.
Ah, too bad.
It, however, seems that I have more digital photos of my youngest as a baby on this blog and I have none of my girls. Obviously I started blogging when my girls are a little older. However, it also means that I spend more time with him than my girls these days because my girls are not around. It strikes me hard how quickly my girls are growing up. As much as I enjoy seeing their growth and independence which means more freedom for myself, I do feel sentimental. This sentiment becomes my desire to capture every moment of the time I share with my kids, especially my youngest who is still around and needs me the most.
Many Japanese mom friends of mine often says to me “you must love him so much (“more than your girls” is inferred behind the words)”. Honestly, I don’t think he’s cuter or more lovable than my girls when they were at that age. I think all toddlers are adorable in their own ways. I do admit that my son wants and needs me more at the moment than my older girls need me and I love being wanted and needed. It seems that this is reflected on the time I spend with him.

Thank you for visiting!
Your son is so adorable! And his hair is very kakkoii 😉 It was really interesting to read your thoughts on raising three kids. I’m the third child of four siblings, and I can relate to many things you wrote about. Like, how the amount of printed albums you make decreases with every child. That’s very true! But I have the least even though I’m not the youngest because my little brother was the first boy in a line of girls, and even though he was the fourth in line, people took more pictures of him. Your little one is lucky that he has an entire blog full of photos to look back on 😉
Thank you, Miwa! I didn’t realize that you had a younger brother! I thought that you were one of the 3 girls! How cool! I can see how your youngest brother ends up with more photos. My son is kind of the same although I don’t know if it’s because of him being the youngest and only boy or my older two are not interested in being in my photos any more. 🙂
Looks so good !!
Thank you, Cindy!
Y is adorable and I love the way you have him styled from his hair down to his loafers. So cute!
