A lot of people ask me if the girls recognize each other and play together. Do they ever.  Well, I suppose you could call it “playing”.  It’s more like this…

Hello, Nora and Tessa.  How’s it going?  Looks like you two are playing together.

Yes, mom.  We each have a toy to chew on.  It’s great fun.  We love toys.

Hey!  Tessa thinks that the toy Nora is holding looks like more fun than this green bowl.  Could I play with that toy?

Lemme see that toy.  That is not a question.  It’s a statement.

If I could just get a hold of that toy.  It would be mine.

I’m getting close…

Foiled again!

Now, I am going to make my opinion on this matter known to all.  See the expression on my face?  Nooooot happppppyyyyy….

Forget about the toys, says Nora.  How about I play with your face!?!?!

Getting closer…

What’s going to happen next???

Was that a flash?  Oh, hello mother.  We forgot you were there.

The toy is mine.  Sorry baby Tessa.  Better luck next time.

So, that’s playtime/grabfest on Walmer Street.  Just wait until you see the battle that goes on in the stroller…
