I remember Adam as being the leader of the triplets, but I could be wrong. Guess I need to get my hands on some of the books.

Huh, I always thought of Adam as the leader of the triplets as well. I really have never paid any attention to Jordan cause he always just seemed like Adam Jr.

I’ve been reading a lot about the Pikes lately and have started to notice different personalities for Adam and Jordan. Though I always saw Byron as being kind of the outsider and more sensitive and quiet, I always lumped Adam and Jordan together as one. Now I see that Jordan is slightly more take-charge and bossy. Examples are when he is the “leader” in their secret agent game in Goodbye Stacey and in Jessi’s Gold Medal when he is the “fitness trainer”. But I might be missing some times when Adam wants to be the leader. Anyone think of any of these? Or more examples of Jordan taking over? I remember reading that Jordan is the oldest, but yeah he is a bit bossy.

I also remember that Jordan plays the piano. Hmmm, maybe the confusion as to what Pike triplet is bossier really shows that their personalities are kind of meshed in together as one person ;D

Yeah, I think Adam and Jordan are pretty much interchangeble.

I always just assumed Adam was the oldest triplet because he came first alphabetically. Didn't realize that Jordan was the oldest.

^ I always thought that Adam was the leader of the group also. Sort of like they gave Jordan the piano, Byron his sensitivity, and Adam as the leader. For some reason, when they were in Little League and were excluding Nicky from playing with them, I remember Adam being the most dominant triplet. Didn't realize that Jordan was the oldest either.

I think they metioned that in the new Mallory Pike book, but I haven't read it for awhile, so I could be wrong.

I think the reason I'm picturing Jordan as the leader is because he is the "head secret agent" when they play that game. I just read Poor Mallory and liked how the triplets tried to start their own business. I liked them pretty well in that one - maybe because they weren't just being bullies and picking on Nicky. I know I've complained about the triplets and their manners and attitudes before but it actually adds some humor to the books. Lately, I've enjoyed reading about them more than I did before.

If Jordan is the oldest, who is the youngest triplet?

I would guess Byron, too, mostly because Adam and Jordan always argue over who is oldest. This might be because they are the most dominant, though. A question about Byron, is it ever mentioned that he's stockier than the other two? For some reason, I picture him as pudgier and Adam and Jordan as slim. Maybe this is because of the book where he is really excited about the "daddy stew"

I'm not sure if he's ever mentioned as chubby, but I do remember that he liked to eat all the time.

Poor Byron burned the daddy stew!! He just turned up the heat because he was sooooo hungry. LOL. I don't remember any descriptions of the triplets build.

^ The Daddy Stew was soooo funny ;D What book was that in? I think that is one of my very favorite "Pike moments". Daddy stew sounds kind of good in a gross way ;D
