2 can play



greta is about as sweet and mild mannered as anyone can be. she's pretty easygoing and flexible. but she is also 2 years old. and she also has a little brother who is all of the sudden VERY mobile and VERY interested in anything greta is playing with. needless to say, this is causing some stress for little greta.
but sometimes they play together well, as in the last picture where greta is showing otto her babydoll. they play well when it is on "her terms", like when greta can decide that otto can join. not so much when otto decides to come barreling through a newly built lego building, trashing it and shoving all the pieces into his drooly little mouth.
and sometimes they play separately. otto still loves greta's dollhouse, and greta's latest toy obsession is a 2 dollar alphabet puzzle i bought at big lots.
but no matter how they play or what they play with, they really do make each other smile and laugh like brothers and sisters should. i love watching them together when they don't know we're watching....
