She Means It

Caitlynn has started reinforcing what I say to Miles. 

Here's a sample:

Me to Miles: "Don't eat all the gummy bears or else you'll get a stomach ache."
Miles to Me: "I want the gummy bears, though."
Me to Miles: "No."
Caitlynn (in the background): "She means it."

OR

Me to Miles: "Clean up your toys or I'm going to throw them away."
Caitlynn (again, in the background): "She means it."

Is it me or has Caitlynn finally started listening to what I say? Can't be. No way. My Caitlynn actually listen to moi

I'm glad to have the reinforcement when Miles starts whining and complaining that I won't let him eat the whole box of Lucky Charms (absolute favorite cereal in this house) without getting a tummy ache. Caitlynn will always have my back -- "She means it."

Thanks, Caty.

Miles may have ambitions on being spiderman, but Caitlynn has discovered what it is to be a big sister...

Oh poor Miles, 2 against 1

Yes, she's learning quickly how to be a big sister. Funny how the roles become more defined as they get older.
