Sibling Rivalry

NiNi has been in a very....how do I say....delicate emotional state for the past 3 weeks now. It's like the terrible 2's all over again, except she is smarter and stronger and sassier. And Meagan, unfortunately, is the spark to NiNi's gunpowder. We were at Target the other day and saw a little girl holding and cuddling her doll. It was so precious that I commented to the mom. The girl's mother said, "She likes to pretend that the doll is her little sister". I said to Meagan, "Isn't that sweet...she really WANTS to have a sister." Meagan replied, "That's only because she doesn't have one."

NiNi, Ethan and I were getting ready to go for a walk. As I was putting Ethan into his coat, I started kissing and tickling him. NiNi, in an irritated tone said, "All right, mom. That's enough 'maw-mawing'" I guess "maw maw" was her sound effect for kissing.
