More Amazing
On Monday, Jonathan said what sounded like "van-fan" so I tried to figure out what he meant. He pointed to the shelf and said it again, maybe differently. I looked up, and there were the bits - works of Rembrandt! I said, "Rembrandt?" And he said, "yes, Rembrandt!" (or a close approximation.)... (More)

Catch Up
With visitors and camping, I have not been as faithful in recording Jonathan's growth as I'd like. But here are some recent things. He pointed to the bandage on my finger and said, "bandain. ow." He has been quite interested in "bandains" and even asked me to put one on his finger too. He... (More)

Successful Inside Robin Viewing
After much disturbing of the poor robins, I have taken off the paneling over the window and have a lovely view of the nest. It is at a rather awkward angle for the camera, but I can still get some shots. I have a pillowcase suspended from the ceiling about 8 inches from the window, so that our... (More)

Too Many Words
Jonathan is saying new words so quickly now that it is impossible to keep track of them. Here are a few highlights from the past week.

You know, there is just something so sweet and heart-melting when his little voice says "mommy." I didn't... (More)

Daddy
On Saturday while we were hanging around on CMU campus for Carnival, Jonathan signed "Daddy." We were at the top of the hill by the tennis courts, talking to a friend, and our kids were playing down at the bottom of the hill. I saw Jonathan signing for Daddy, and he was thrilled to answer the... (More)

Yet Another Delay
When I said a year ago that maybe Jonathan would be in college by the time this was all done, I was joking, but apparently, it might come true.I got a note from Vicki today saying that the defense filed for pre-trial motions, and the judge agreed. So, the pre -trial meeting will happen on... (More)

Jonathan's Recent Activities
He seems to have at least one new word a day now. Sometime before March 24, he said "boots." On March 24 he signed "cheese" and drank some water from a small bathroom cup by himself without crushing the cup to a pulp and without spilling very much. He says water that sounds like "why."

Puzzle
This morning Jonathan clearly said, "puzzle." It was not a Mommy-only interpretation, I'm sure. Anyone would have understood it. He likes the musical instrument puzzle, and I think he says "tuba" but that is a Mommy-ears questionable one. (More)
