Wrestling Time with Naughty Uncle Solos

Wrestling Time with Naughty Uncle Solos.

Little Oliver (just 4) takes after my brother, his (not so little) Uncle Solos (31) who I’m currently calling Naughty Uncle Solos as he usually arrives to see the kids with bags of sweets on the naughty list (which aren’t on the list to be fair), toy guns (definitely on the naughty list) and ice pops-mostly in the winter. Le sigh.
Solos and Alexander-Honest Mum

Sol being all mature with baby Alexander!

I get it, he’s re-living his youth through my kids and he really is a good Uncle, showering them both with tonnes of love and football honing tips to boot, but sometimes it’s well quite simply infuriating. Do men ever grow up, I ask you?!

Being the lovely sister that I am though, I did meet him half-way recently and accepted this  WWE Power Slammers Wrecking Ball (thing) gifted to Oliver so he and Sol could play together, erm wrecking things (I think).

To save Sol’s dignity here are the shots of Oliver solo. Solos did love too though. That and the ice pops kept them busy for hours (slamming…or something). So there you have it, a wrestling (thing) loved by little and big boys everywhere.
