Hi everyone... most of you know, I have Phoebe, who will be one tomorrow(!). We brought Carson, our little boy, home about 2 weeks ago and he's almost 14 weeks. So here's my question.

Sometimes they get along fine. But sometimes, when Carson wants to play, it seems like Phoebe is getting mad. I don't know how much to let them work it out, and if I should get after Phoebe to be nice about it. I try to tone Carson down when he's getting too crazy for her. When we play fetch they seem to work it out okay, though Phoebe gets annoyed if he touches her once she's retrieved the toy. I just don't know how much to let her get after him, or if I should just let them be. I don't want her to be mean, but I also don't want him to think he can pick on her.

I'd really like to hear how others of you have coped with adding the second one. Phoebe has always been pretty mellow, but she's showing more attitude now with Carson here.
Thanks in advance!
