A day in the life of two boys...

I just wanted to share this little interaction with all of you.....just so those of you with no kids, or 1 kid, or older kids can see or reminisce about how it is/was with 2... :o) Enjoy!


First of all...this all revolves around this sippy cup. As you see here, Mackie has the sippy cup. It is Creston's cup and will soon be back in its owners possession...(please note how HAPPY Mackie is to have this cup! So proud! So excited!!)

Ok.....at some point, the cup made its way back to Creston...Below you see Mackie trying to snatch it away from evil older brother yet again...
It almost works, but Creston intercepts the cup and proceeds to "shoot" Mackie with an accompanying "Bang Bang BANG!!!". (the shooting occurs when he is mad at one of us...we have all died multiple times over the last many months...I think we're looking pretty good to be dead!)

Now......(wish I had a full-on shot of Mackie), this is Mackie SCREAMING at the top of his lungs at Creston. Note the extended arms and squatting position...Now imagine the loudest possible squeal that you can and multiply it by 100 and you've got the picture! (Also note that Creston doesn't seemed fazed by this outcry of emotion from his baby brother).

Just for kicks, Mackie attempts it again...No good this time either, little fella...

Thus...the heartbreak...

Please note the tiny person behind the rocking chair....this is Mackie leaving the room because I said "Do you want your bath now?". He stopped crying, and RAN towards the hallway. I said "Mackie? Where are you going?" and took this shot.

He wants what Creston has and Creston wants what he has.......never ends!!!! :o)
