The boys are engaged in an ongoing battle of one-upmanship. Whatever one can do, the other can do better.
A snippet of conversation from today:
Tristan: “Yeah, well, I know more Pokémon characters than you do!”
Simon: “No you don’t!”
Tristan: “Yes I do!”
**fast forward through six rounds of “No you don’t!”/”Yes I do!”**
Simon: “I’ve been watching Pokémon longer than you!”
Tristan: “No you haven’t. I’m older, I’ve been watching Pokémon longer than you!”
Simon: “No you haven’t. I’ve been watching Pokémon since I was in mommy’s belly!”
Beloved, after the laughter of grownups subsides: “Sheesh, you didn’t tell me you had cable in there. No wonder they were all so reluctant to come out!”
I bet you didn’t have a PVR in there either
Just really love your blog. Happy New Year to all the Donders.
Too funny.
That’s priceless!
That was just funny. My daughter does the same with a cousin. Sometimes they can argue about the most useless stuff. Nobody wants to lose. Happy new year to you and your family!
Someone has to say it: you’ve got a womb with a view.
I’ve heard of playing Mozart next to your swollen belly, but wasn’t familiar with the benefits to siddleing up next to an episode of Pokémon!
