This picture was taken when these nuggets were 2 and 4 years old. Although sibling rivalry was at its height, there were sweet moments like these too. Elliot didn’t mind his sister when she was tiny in the bassinet, that is until she got mobile and got into his things. During their squabbles when both were not talking and in diapers, I’d sometimes find him sitting on her, but she’d lash out and scratch him with her little fingers.

But here’s a sweet memory of them few winters ago. Elliot wanted me to post these pictures since Ellis “looked adorable.” We’ve made lots of progress in their sibling relationship!
