Sisters, but not the Same

Sisters, but not the Same

The beach highlights how different our girls are. Nora prefers to stay on the shore, stacking cups, or tossing a ball around. Maeve on the other hand, needs to be in the water. Splashing recklessly and squealing with aquatic joy.

As Maeve has grown, we've needed to relearn some parts of being parents. Maeve's cues are different, as an example.

  • When she's hungry (as she often is) she'll smack her lips.
  • When she wants someone's attention, she'll let out a quick grunt.
  • She'll devour anything near her (edible or otherwise), whereas Nora was definitely up to try things, but would cast quick judgement on whether she'd finish.

The time, and focus, we're spending on this trip is helping me solidify a unique picture in my head of what Maeve is like. And she's interesting.

  • She's very social, and up to give anyone a chance.
  • She's very physical and wants to touch and feel her way around things.
  • She's patient, but not if you're out of sight.

She's her own person, and we're fascinated.


Highlights

🏋 Warehouse (Split) - incredibly friendly local gym, at an absolute steal of price.

🏝 Kasjuni Beach️ (Split) - very popular (for good reason) pebble beach, with crystal clear waters - we rented a cabana and lazed around for the entire afternoon.
