Big age gap between children/siblings?

Throwing the deuces
There's a 11 yr age difference between me and my brother and a 6 yr difference between me and my sister. I am the baby of the family. My brother and I don't really have a relationship as by the time I was 6, he was off to college and never moved back into the house. It's been years since we've spoken and most of the time, I forget he exists. My sister and I have a pretty good relationship, both as kids and now as adults.

My two boys are 3 yrs apart and are inseperable. Everyone comments what a great big brother the older one is to his little brother. But they do have their moments where it seems the only fun they can find is to annoy eachother and call eachother "Bolt Head Larry"** which is a name my oldest came up with for his little brother but I've never figured out why. :lol:

** and youngest's name is NOT Larry.

Back in the saddle
My brother and I are 3 years apart. I'm pretty sure most of the time we fought like cats and dogs.

My dad remarried and had 3 more kids. There is 19 years difference between me and the oldest. I get along with her, but I don't see them all time to fight with her. I had moved out long before she was born. I had her over a few times this summer helping out with the kids. She is a wonderful teenager and has been brought up well. The other two girls are 6 and soon to be 8.
