Vacuum, Sentences, Stories
10/26 - Jonathan crumbled his biscuit all over the dining room floor, so I asked him if he could vacuum it up. I got out the vacuum cleaner for him, and he did a great job all by himself! Then he wanted to play with the mini vacuum and he found a very funny game of picking up his color bits... (More)

Number Three Is On The Way!
The amazing blessing of new life is upon us again! I am pregnant and we are all thanking God. The baby is due the end of June, 2006. It took me longer to suspect it this time around because my cycles were just returning. But by Monday I thought about my resuming afternoon naps and getting up... (More)

Jon Goes To The ER
Based on an excruciating headache Wednesday afternoon, October 12, that did not go away, Jon and I headed to West Penn Hospital Emergency Room at 10:30pm. A friend came to the house to watch Jonathan while he slept. Here is an aside - it was so good for Jonathan that he did not come, he would... (More)

Visiting Canada, Part I
Thursday morning, we drove up to Jon's Aunt Janet's place in Hamilton, Ontario. We stopped at "our" Wal-Mart at the two hour mark for a bathroom break and to buy some snacks. (I think we've stopped there every time we go that way - it must just be at a good break point.) Going through customs... (More)

Trapeze, Rhymes, Fun, and Self-Control
So much exciting stuff happened today that I want to get it written down now, even before we post about our vacation to Canada this weekend. Jonathan made up his own rhymes today and was obviously pleased with himself. "Toe-oh-bo" in the morning and "Hello, Moe! Hello, Joe!" into the phone in... (More)

Songs, Shoes, Books, and Packages
On Tuesday, I just randomly started singing "All Around the Mulberry Bush" without really thinking about it. When I finished, Jonathan said in a singy voice, "monkey, weasel, monkey, weasel!" That evening when we were putting on shoes to go home from the Kuhns, Jonathan said, "right foot" and... (More)

More Words
While it is impossible to keep up with all of the new words Jonathan can say, there are interesting stories every once in a while (how "interesting" is measured is probably different among the different readers of this blog) and so I like to share them. Also, I realized that sometimes we say he... (More)

Fun Times
One day for dinner I prepared a noodle dish from a toddler-friendly cookbook that was "toddler rated 10 out of 10." I also made asparagus as a side dish. Jonathan loves asparagus and helped me taste test it as I was preparing it. Then at dinner we had to tell him that he had to eat a couple... (More)

More and More
April 16 - "buzz" like a bee, "thank you" !! what a thrill for Mommy - and he's been consistently saying it when we give him things, "whoa" for slipping or similar. Unscrewed the toothpaste cap. April 17 - "cheerio" with perfect pronuncation, "people", "bonk" (and repeatedly bonking his head... (More)

Porch Door, Knock Knock, Whistling
Jonathan can now open the porch door (going from inside to outside) all by himself! He was so happy with the accomplishment, he did it over and over. Some time recently, Jonathan managed to get a whistle out of his pursed lips. I was in the kitchen and he was in the living room, heading towards... (More)

Helping Is Fun
I mentioned before that Jonathan likes to take the clothes out of the dryer and put them in the laundry basket. Now he likes to put the wet clothes in the dryer if I take them out of the washer and hand them to him. His favorite part, though, is pressing the button to start the dryer. He can't... (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." Other... (More)

Are The Old Ladies Right After All?
Friday evening, Jonathan was cranky, he fell asleep early, and he felt hot. I wondered if it might be an ear infection because his right ear had been squeaking when he nursed. In the middle of the night, I remembered that fever is a common reaction to the MMR vaccine, usually occuring 7-12 days... (More)

Good Night, Daddy
Last night when it was time to go bed, after I changed his diaper, I took Jonathan down from the table and said, "Go into the other room and say good night to Daddy and then we'll go to bed." He did just that, with his "good night" sounding similar to "bye-bye" with softer consonants. He even... (More)
