Sharing with Sissy

So Taylee's now old enough to really cramp Anden's style. Some days he's not too thrilled about the competition for his toys. Basically she's now become target practice for his football, baseball, hockey puck, soccer ball, karate chops, anything he can make into a sword, or my favorite of running and hurdling over her while she's sitting (his success rate of clearly the hurdle, aka her head, is about 75%).

Today we took them on their first shared bike ride. It was such a loving moment.

Anden: "What?! Sissy no come! This my bike! No share with Sissy! Both my handles! Sissy get off!"

Parents: "Anden! Be nice to her!! It'll be fun! She gets to ride with you"

Anden: "No take her out!"

Taylee: (thinking) "If he won't give me some room, then I'll just bite his arm!"

We eventually talked him (ok bribed him) into realizing this would be a fun event!

The rest of the ride went smoothly! We all had a great time! Until things were a bit too quiet. We're still wondering what mischievous thing Anden did to her....

Somewhere in the back of my mind I hear my mom singing "And we are a happy family!"
