An Interview With T at 5 (A Lockdown SPECIAL!)

You may remember, when T was just about to turn 3, I did a little interview with him to tell you all about the things he likes to see and do (and eat!). It was a lovely experience as not only was I hearing his vocabulary come along but I was learning more about his personality.

Annoyingly, I completely forgot to do it last year, which I’m actually quite sad about – 4 was quite an interesting year when it came to T’s developments. It was also the year, in our opinion, that he started to become an independent little person with particular likes and dislikes. Nevertheless, now that *cough* two years have passed, I thought I’d do it again, now that’s he’s the big Zero-Five and share the differences in comparison to 3. I’m hoping to make a regular thing of this now that he’s quite the chatterbox!

Just like last time, we sat down after breakfast and asked him the following questions, writing down exactly what he said. In addition, being the fact that we’re still in lockdown here in the UK due to the coronavirus, I thought I’d ask him a couple of special lockdown related questions too…

Typically, he’s not quite the chatterbox when under pressure, but I’m loving how his answers are changing every year.

  1. Love it, Tristan’s favourite food is cheesy past too. We asked him similar questions too yesterday and his answers were hilarious but we never shared them.
