Mommy and the boys took a car load of stuff over to the new house today. Included in this load was the double stroller. If you can't visualize what the double stroller looks like, its like a big Jeep. The front driver has a snap on attachment which has a steering wheel, car key and horn. Just as we were getting ready to leave, Brian noticed this attachment piece and wanted to have it on his lap so that he could back seat drive from his car seat. Knowing that two boys and one toy made for a bad travel combination, before we left Mommy located a similar driving toy for Spencer to play with. Everything was fine until Brian decided that he wanted the toy Spencer was playing with. Proving once again that you can't reason with a two year old......
Mommy: "Brian, Spencer gets to play with that toy on the way there and then we will switch and you can play with it on the way back."
Brian: "Okay (brief pause until he starts reaching out trying to snatch the toy away from his brother, followed by crying when Mommy tells him to stop)."
Fortunately, Spencer could really care less what toy he played with and after the toy switch, the ride back home was much more enjoyable!
