Car rides with the boys!


The kids have been such hams lately while driving in the car! Cooper usually starts the laughter and then he gets Carter tickled and then it turns into a full blown screaming fest by both parties that ends with me laughing and telling them to quite down at the same time! I guess I should go back to when this started, because it honestly is my fault!! :) I decided that the kids would like it better if they sat next to each other instead of on opposite sides of the car and Blaine deemed it to be safer anyway! Well as soon as they were next to each other the touching, poking, and annoying each other began. Carter would, just to get a raise out of Cooper, throw his leg over the carseat into Cooper's lap and tap his foot on Cooper's leg. Cooper in return would throw Carter's leg back over the carseat and the process would continue over and over and over. I finally got tired of dealing with the drama that came with this so I threatened to move them back across from each other if they did not learn to be nice. Well this upset Cooper terribly and he proclaimed that he "loved sitting by Carter"! So now in attempts to stay next to Carter, when Carter does something to annoy him, Cooper starts tickling Carter, laughing at Carter, or does something extremely silly. They seem to have worked out their differences but now we seem to have a trveling funny act in the backseat. After all the drama and funny stuff is over they really do LOVE each other and it is great to see them enjoying each others company!!!
