Henry Scratched Me With His Teeth

Lydia and Henry have been getting baths together lately because it's easier than trying to keep one of them out. Henry is getting more protective of his space and both Lydia and Henry are enjoying playing together more often. The other day Lydia was getting into Henry's personal space and pushing him with her elbow and shoulder. Henry, who usually just takes the abuse and pushes back with one hand or sucks his thumb and hopes she will go away, instead pulled a fast reversal and pushed her onto all fours, double handed karate chopped her across the back and then promptly bit her left shoulder blade.

I must admit that she had it coming and I was a little proud of my little guy, but biting is almost never the answer.

Lydia in between whimpers: Henry scratched me in a strange way...wah...Henry scraaatched me with his teeth!
