Brotherly Love

Yet another injury sustained by Tyler. I swear, he is going to be one tough guy after surviving Nicholas! They were playing around on the floor (Nicholas likes to crawl around and pretend he is a puppy chasing after Ty) and Tyler started screaming at the top of his lungs. At first I couldn't see anything wrong, but I felt a wet spot on the back of Tyler's diaper and I moved it to discover this...

...enormous bite mark!
If you look closely, you can distinctly see the two upper teeth marks on the right, four lower teeth marks on the left, and a blood blister in between. MAN! He didn't cry for very long, but Nicholas sure wasn't happy when he got his 'time out'! He does a pretty good face. If that's not a manipulative pout, I don't know what is!

Ten minutes later they were friends and off playing again. They are usually sweet to each other, but lately Nick is starting to get a little rougher than he should.
Tyler is doing great, he has been pulling himself up on the furniture for a few months and is starting to walk along it. He even gets brave every now and then and lets go, only to fall after a few seconds. He is still cutting his first tooth and has a fever right now. It was a rough day yesterday with all that and getting bit. But he still smiles through most of it. We really do have two great boys.
