The downside of having little brothers who talk now

They can express opinions, and there are 2 of them, and they tend to stick together, which means you can be easily outvoted.  Take the zoo, for instance.  Isaac and Alex wanted to see the gorillas.  Gabe did not.  Guess who won?  We've been telling Gabe for a while that he was gonna be in for it when the boys got bigger, and he's finally realizing that.  Just wait until they're 3.  He might be glad to be going to school every day.

He's still pretty good at bending them to his will though (for now).  He's quite the little organizer.  He set up a whole fair in the house one day.  He planned a "baby school" and is helping them learn to count and sing their ABC's.  He's teaching them to play games, organizing bands with pretend instruments, reading naptime stories, doling out cereal.  He's the perfect big brother, as long as we give him a constructive outlet for his leadership skills (a.k.a. bossiness). 


Clearly Gabe's boys don't like him at all
