Luke Sharing?

Now that Luke has a play-mate, he has had to learn to start sharing. At first his interactions with his baby sister were more like, "she's still here?" or "why is SHE crying?" or "mommy stop her from being upset". Then he moved on to exploring his sister. He would poke her, hit her, push her or anything else he could think of. Like it was an experiment. Would she cry if I did this? Or would she scream louder if I did that?


He is finally to the point now where he has stopped experimenting, for the most part. Sometimes he will place toys in front of her, like he knows she'll like it or something. Other times he takes the toys away and she starts screaming. Then sometimes he puts a toy in front of her and once she decides she wants to play with it (her hand is in the air and coming towards it), Luke will snatch the toy away. As if saying, "hah...gottcha...can't have it". Personally I think that is pretty mean of a big brother to do.

Other times I'm in the kitchen and I'll hear both of them laughing, so I go to investigate. Usually one of two things is happening. One, both are staring at each other only a few inches apart (Luke on his back and baby girl on her tummy). Or two, Luke is on his knees facing his sister and baby girl in on her back a few inches away. Luke will take his sister's shirt and pull her to him (kind of rolling her his way) and then he'll let go and she rolls back to her back on her own and then she laughs.
Sometimes they just look at each other in the car and laugh back and forth while I'm driving down the road. Crazy Kids!!
