'I want bitt-nee, i want book-ee'

Jacob has been not wanting to go to sleep lately- and cries after we put him down alot of the time- nap or bed time- and sometimes cries for us when he wakes up in the morning- he never used to do that- he'd just call our name or play quietly- he is quite anxious i think- he hears EVERY noise- and most of them scare him ('what's that noisEY') and strangers scare him too- which i guess is good- but only to a point! hopefully it's just a phase...

so monday night after his bath, he tells me he doesnt want to get dressed- and finally i convince him, but after he got dressed, he said 'i want BITNEE' i said what? you want brittany, why? lol only bc usually he wants me or daddy- and he said 'yes, i want bITNEE' and ran into the other room and had her pick him up and he wanted to sit in the recliner/rocker with her- so cute- and then, or course, justin wanted to join in- usually he tells me he only sometimes likes brittany bc she picks on him, but i guess monday he liked her- so they both sat on her lap for a while until i made jake go to bed. made me happy bc of course i want my kids to love each other- and sometimes since the age gap is so big i feel like the girls think of their little brothers more as a 'chore' than a sibling... when we got upstairs, jake wanted BOOKEE, but i told him that she was working (she was playing on her computer) and that it was bedtime, so i let him give her a kiss and hug goodnight.. anyway- of course i had to take a pic, i love it :)
