Best Friends and Worst Enemies...

These two... Pierce and Alex are about 6 months apart and they are best friends... and worst enemies... when they see each other they are ecstatic and it is like they have not seen each other in a decade... but after 5 minutes they are hitting, yelling, crying...these two are very strong willed individuals and neither one of them gives in... if one of the boys wants a toy the other wants it too... if one has a toy the other one will take it from him... but when us moms (Lesley and I) try to separate them and sometimes have to go back home... they scream for the other to come and play... makes no sense... so I guess Best Friends can be worst enemies...






We are neighbors with the Cowdy's and we get to spend alot of time with them and we really do enjoy every minute... I hear that this hate/love relationship between two boys is very common... but there are times when Lesley and I wish we could just sit in the quiet and have a cup of tea together... without having to intervene in the drama... but we love these two and would not trade it for the world.

Boys will be boys, as they say. At least they're having "fun" in their own way. But I know what you mean, just wanna relax. Ah, toddlers!

Don't blame them, they obviously don't have very good male role models. Blake and I seriously need to take a long, hard look at our parenting skills......Perhaps over a beer sometime?

Someday when Pierce has a sibling, it will be the exact same way! Best friends and bitter enemies all at the same time. Elysse

We have that exact same rug! Ikea? The pictures of those two playing are precious. Little boys are so rowdy and so much trouble but they're sooooo worth it.
