The Elephant in the Room...

While cuddling in bed with Miss Sarah this morning, I heard a funny noise coming from around the house. I told Sarah that I would be right back and headed to the door. It didn't take me long to realize that the elephant like noise was coming from a certain little person. My Bug. I walk in and she screaches, grabs a binky and throws her arms up in the air. Is there any better way to be greeted in the morning? I picked her up and squeezed her tight and then was greeted by Sarah who looked up and yelled 'OH!! It's the baby Charlotte!! OOooohhh Good Morning!!' As I type, both are sat down with some Apply Juice and Winnie the Pooh, sitting next to each other. Watching these girls, I am so jealous of them being sisters! They are each other's best friends, playmates, and ultimate frustration. Their relationship is so dynamic, probably due to their completely opposite personalities. Sarah loves to run around outside, she will climb up any horse, chases cows, pounces on the dogs, is in constant need of attention (correction half the time), she loves to be read to for about 10 seconds, and has been talking about Christmas for the last 6 months! Charlotte, on the other hand, is a much more mellow baby. She enjoys being outside but would rather sit inside and be read to for hours. She hates horses, hates getting dirty, and a quiet 'no' will put her on the right track. Her persistence goes far above and beyond Sarah's ever did though. A simple 'no' may turn her away, but she is right back at it 5 minutes later. My monkey takes a stiffer, louder voice but she's usually pretty good about it the rest of the day. It will definately be interesting to see how they grow and change over the next few years!
