Can You Feel the Love?

When I found out I was pregnant with Chandler one of my first thoughts was "I hope they get along".  I could only imagine sisters 20 months apart as teenagers fighting over friends and boys.  Uggghhh!  Most people who knew sisters so close in age told me it was a tough 18 years, but "don't worry....they're best friends now that they're 30!"  Needless to say my expectations of them getting along are never very high, but they actually really love each other and are so sweet to each other (most of the time).

Some of my favorite things they do:
1.  They love to do fashion shows together, alternating which princess they each are
2.  When older kids try to play with Brooklynn she just ignores them, saying she just wants to play with Chandler
3.  When Chandler gets in trouble (which is a common occurence), Brooklynn always defends her, sometimes really giving it to Steve and I
4.  If Chandler doesn't eat her dinner and doesn't get a treat Brooklynn ALWAYS shares some of hers!

This week they've both been sick with colds and have enjoyed some snuggle time.  When I came downstairs the other day I found them eating breakfast like this - loving to share a chair!

And then snuggling together on the couch

Now, they're not always this sweet to each other, but with low expectations, I'm always amazed how sweet they are to each other.  Now to see how another baby changes/adds to the dynamic.  Yikes!
