Bits

Jonathan has been very happy with his bits recently, asking for them a lot. He is never bored with the picture bits, but I have had to scale down on the math and reading cards. However, the other day I discovered a way to show the math dots that keeps him riveted. I say the number several times, turning the card and showing a new angle for every repetition. He likes that much better and thinks it's pretty fun. He will look at six in a row when I do it that way. (More)

Sick

I am not usually awake at 5:30 in the morning, but Jonathan's sickness has caused us to go through three diapers, three tshirts and one set of bedsheets all in the span between 3 and 4:30 am. Now he won't go back to sleep, so here I am.

Monday is Vacuum Day

Jonathan has been asking to vacuum the house all week, but I told him we had to wait until Monday. Today he was so excited when I was vacuuming that he was bouncing and grinning and saying, "vacuum" over and over again. (More)

Keys and Locks

I have been locking the file cabinet because Jonathan not only likes to pull the drawers (which is fine) but he also likes to pull out the papers in the drawers (not fine!) (More)

How'd We Get To Fifteen So Fast??

This morning, I found Jonathan's lower left canine poking through. That's five teeth in a span of only a couple of days! He hasn't been acting unusual - the only thing I can think of is being more cuddly recently.

Teeth 11, 12, 13, 14

I just looked in Jonathan's mouth and noticed that the other top molar is in. Then I felt and discovered that both top canines are poking through! Then I decided to check everywhere and found that the second bottom molar is in also. Phew!

Yesterday, Jonathan signed "more" very clearly and correctly. I rewarded him by fulfilling his request - more dried cranberries from my granola. (More)

Push

The Venables came over for dinner last night. When Jonathan pointed to a button on Hannah's outfit, I said, "That's a button." He immediately poked his finger at it and said, "Push!"
