They're Scrappy, These Two

Lately, it seems as a lot of my time is spent being a referee. Whatever one girl has, the other two want. Especially between the twins. Jane and Sydney fight over stuff all of the time. They take food off of the other's high chair, they steal toys from each other in the double stroller; it is a constant struggle. For example...

Jane spots a cup and stakes her claim.

Sydney spots Jane with the cup and decides to mosey on over.
Jane turns away; she's not giving up easily.

Sydney turns on the drama, squeals and throws her head to the floor.

Sydney spots a break in Jane's interest. "Now is my chance!"

Jane is realizing what has transpired.

"Don't mess with me and my Elmo cup."

A few seconds later, Sydney was without the cup again. And the drama continues.

The real kicker here is that the Elmo cup is actually Clare's.

Good luck mommy, I fear this is the first of many similar episodes! Who wouldn't want the elmo cup?

This sounds so much like Sarah's day - it made me laugh and smile at such special memories, though I know you probably don't see it that way yet. Only a grandmother can feel this way!!!!! Thanks for updating so well and keeping me informed of the Eoff clan. Patti
