Have you ever wondered at what age siblings start fighting? Let me answer that for you... IN THE WOMB!!! Sound crazy? I thought so until last night. I really thought I had awhile. Kyden didn't really try to interact other kids until he was about six months old, so I was supposed to have awhile before I was breaking up the male bonding. NOPE!!
It started out as a sweet moment. Kyden and I were snuggled up on the recliner together reading a book. Kyden loves to be read to. Today I sat in the floor for over an hour reading the same 5 page book to him over and over again. But I digress and apologize. Last night we were reading when suddenly Cameron (due March 14th) kicked really hard right where Kyden was. Hard enough that Kyden, who was sitting back against my stomach lurched forward. The look on his face was hilarious. It was something between outrage and "what the heck was that?" He looked at my stomach for about a second and then slapped my belly. Afterwords, he turned around, readjusted himself so that he wasn't laying against my stomach anymore, pointed at the book, and demanded "read." I am glad to see he gets over it quickly. Meanwhile, I am sitting there in shock at what I had just witnessed. A fight between a 16 month old and an unborn child.
So mark this down, February 10, 2011. 32 days prior to his date of arrival. Cameron and Kyden have already fought. I hope this is not indicative of their future relationship or else we'll be building a MMA fighting cage in our back yard. Whenever the boys get into we'll just send them to the cage. LOL!! My one avowed hope could be that the boys would one day use "Rock em Sock em Robots" to settle their differences. However, the cage could come in handy. If we ever found ourselves short on cash we could sell tickets to view the boys going at it.
In the meanwhile... Pray for me!! That Kyden and my stomach won't have any more altercations.
