Brotherhood: Mimicking each other

He said he is going to school

MY was trying to mimicking his brother to carry his backpack and ride on the car.

I reckon this little one learn things very fast. I barely teach him anything, not bias - I defend myself, whereby was not having enough time to do so. When I have only my first son, apart of working, I still be able to allocate my time to talk to him, to sing with him, to watch education programme with him, to play toys with him and etc. 

But after having two, life's so challenging. Everyday seems like racing with time. Both kids have different sleeping routine, after you put the younger one to sleep, it's time for the elder one to sleep. Sometimes in the midst, younger one will be awaken too, that would complicate everything. Tried to put them to sleep together, it just won't work, because they will end up playing on the bed. 

Same goes to bath time, both of them need to take turn. There are occasions I let them bath together, if their routine is similar. Mealtimes are very challenging too. Those days, MZ used to sit properly and let me feed him or he will try to feed himself too. Nowadays, he hardly wants to feed himself, because the other brother refuses to sit on the high chair, and prefer to walk around and play while eating. 

Sounds like disaster? Yes, it is. That's the disadvantage of having kids with closer age. However, I foresee things will get better when they grow up a little, when they are able to handle their own matters. Cross my fingers!
