The Pesky Little Brother Emerges

Yesterday Sophie asked if she could watch a movie and I said sure. As she is hustling to the VCR to put in Barney, Keegan was hustling too. To Sophie's favorite chair. Where he promptly sat down and looked at Sophie like "Ha! Beat you to it didn't I? What are you going to do about it? If you push me out of the way you get it trouble? Mwahahahahaha!"

Okay, so maybe the evil laugh was a stretch.

Sophie was displeased to say the least. She first imperiously commanded that he remove himself. He just laughed. Then he grunted which I took to mean "Go ahead, make my day." Then she tried to throw her weight around and squeeze herself in next to him. Keegan, who is already a pretty brawny kid, remained immobile, impervious to her shoving. Finally Sophie dragged over Keegan's chair and he immediately got up and sat down in it leaving Sophie's chair free for the taking. I think this may have been his evil plan all along, getting Sophie to bring him his chair. Maybe I wasn't too far off on the evil laugh after all.
