terrible twos

My niece Sare has gotten a little jealous since her brother was born. Wait, did I say a little jealous? (Not to mention that she just turned two and has been acting rather naughty for the past few months anyway.)

We were at my sister and brother-in-law's house on Sunday, and the following exchanges happened.

First the background information. Every time we say goodbye to Sare on the phone, we say "Love you sweetie" and she repeats it back. Hers sounds more like "Uh you fweetie."

I was holding Isaac and Sare was standing nearby.

Me: (to Isaac) Love you sweetie.
Sare: (pointing to herself) I fweetie!

Sare raised her hand to hit me.

Me: We don't hit.
Sare: I want to hit.

Sare later started biting my leg.

Me: No. We don't bite.
Sare: I want to bite!

Kids are interesting they seem to change as soon as other kids come into their family. My oldest who is 5 has started telling stories since my youngest was born and now is telling people lately that my husband and I don't like them. She even told that to my inlaws.

Penguin: sometimes I want to bite too! I just don't go around admitting that fact. Or I bite my husband. And that's naughty, too. Hee hee. ;)
