My niece Jemma got to spend this past week with us while her momma started a new job. She and Payton could not be more opposite. She is all girl and he is all boy! She spent her days quietly reading books, trying on clothes, taking small bites of food, playing with little people, talking on the phone and "cooking". Payton spent his days climbing on top of the coffee table, scrambling from one room to the next, pulling the books off the shelves, eating like it was his last meal, playing with the dogs and banging pots and pans together. They got along surprisingly well. The one issue we had was "sippy cup envy". He wanted her sippy cup. She wanted his sippy cup. By the end of day 3 it was a losing battle trying to keep the sippy cups with their original owners. Every time I turned my head they had swapped. The grass is always greener I guess. Oh well, I suppose that if that was the worst of it we had a pretty easy week. They were both exhausted by the end of the week but they had a great time playing with each other and enjoying "little person" company.
