it's all downhill from here...or something.

This happens at least three times a day:

Out of the blue, with no reason or provocation, Jude will belt out a big, defiant

NO!

And without fail, Noah will ALWAYS respond:

YES!

And they will go back and forth about ABSOLUTELY.NOTHING.

We've been trying to teach Jude to say "yes" or "yeah" (I'd take slang over defiance any day!). I'm fairly certain Jude just says it to get our reaction and doesn't entirely know what "no" means, but he says it with attitude. Pushing his brother's buttons already. Bring on the sibling rivalry.
