Ella absolutely adores Chloe, there's no doubt about it. Unlike her relationship with her
other sister,* her relationship with Chloe is full of kindness, generousity and affection. She thinks the world of Chloe and is always doing her best to keep her involved in what's going on around her.
For example, should Chloe be left alone in another room for even a second, Ella runs to her rescue and does
this to solve the problem...
You might not be able to tell by the picture, but Chloe's feet are several inches off of the floor because Ella is
carrying her. As you can tell by Chloe's expression, this is not a new thing for her, and in fact, she's quite happy being carried around the house by her big sister.
The first few times Ella tried this, Chloe screamed and wiggled so much Ella was forced to
drop gently put her on the floor. But like a cat gets used to being swung around in a blanket (though this is NOT advised, my little brother did this to our cat all the time while we were growing up, and in the end, my brother was the cat's favorite person in the whole wide world), Chloe has gotten used to this. Ella will even sit down on the rocking chair with Chloe like this and the two of them will sit there rocking for several minutes at a time. It is the sweetest thing to witness, watching Chloe giggle as Ella rocks and talks to her.
* While Britten and Ella love each other dearly and are best buddies, they have a love/I'm-going-to-beat-you-to-a-bloody-pulp-if-you-look-at-me-wrong relationship.

Chloe looks so laid back about the whole thing!
I had the same relationship with my sister...she's 15 years younger than I am...but I still loved to drag her around everywhere (her feet were a few more inches off the ground when I carried her).
Oh, sibling love-it's a precious thing!!!! And Chloe does look she does not mind a bit. Hope you are doing well and having a great fall! Heather ann
Oh yes, I remember that cat. I hated that thing! Your kids are MUCH cuter than that furball. ;)
How sweet!
The dynamics in our children are very similar. Our youngest is a boy that loves both sisters and his oldest sister loves on him. The girls are very much into each other or peeving the other one off. Sometimes for fun I suspect.
Miss Chloe is sure getting big-still cute as ever. :)
That looks like my baby girl be toted around the house by her siblings. I hate it when they try to run with her. I think she is so heavy they try to get to their destination with her fast! I try to fuss at them, but usually have to turn my back to laugh.
