The First Few Days
Noah's a great sleeper, we think because I already had some milk. We had our first tandem nursing session at home Thursday morning and it is sweet to see the two nursing brothers looking at each other across me. Last night was a hard one, though. He had a lot of gas and would not sleep long... (More)

Catch! and Helping
On Tuesday, Jonathan caught a ball for real! Usually the only time he catches it is if the thrower lands it directly into his arms. This time, he actually reached out and to the side with his two hands to make a sucessful catch. This past week has been very hot, slowing an already big and slow... (More)

5/16 - "That was a lot of running. Now I need some breath." 5/17 - "I leaved... I leaved... I left it a little bit open." Whenever someone says that he is a big boy, Jonathan says, "No, I'm not a big boy, I'm a little boy!" Specific instances include talking about the little bed that is... (More)

My Mother's Day
Saturday, Jon bought me a beautiful little azalea bush which we put in a big pot. Sunday morning, he served me breakfast in bed - pear slices arranged in a heart shape around scrambled eggs. After church, we generally relaxed and had time together. We made fondue for dinner. Jonathan did... (More)

More Independence, Thinking, Talking
At church on May 7, Jonathan washed his hands in the bathroom completely independently for the first time - turning on the water, reaching the sink, reaching the soap, turning off the water, drying his hands. I offered to lift him up as usual, but he said, "I can do it!" And he did! The... (More)

Thank You Mom (Daley)
( Originally read on the phone, Mother's Day, 2006 ) Dear Mom, I want to say some things to you and I thought it would be easier to write them in a letter because I am not very good with words and after all those years of getting me to write thank you notes, you know how hard it is for me... (More)

Cheerios in Milk
I have discovered that Jonathan likes his Cheerios in milk if they don't have time to get soggy. So now we have two bowls at breakfast - one for dry Cheerios and one for milk. Then he puts a few in the milk at at time and eats them with his spoon. He gets a lot of milk that way, too. The last... (More)

Microsoft Anti-Spyware / Defender
I guess Microsoft has decided they have cornered enough of the Anti-Spyware market to start charging for the tool to fix their insecure OS. Microsoft popped up a dialog offering to download the new version of the anti-spyware tools. Usually the upgrade doesn't pop-up a separate window, so I was... (More)

Making Breakfast AKA Jonathan's First Post
Italics are what I (Jon) said during the dictation, though I missed a lot, and didn't type in some of Jonathan's repeated sentences. Daddy went downstairs with me, and I went downstairs with me too.  We didn't get three scrambled eggs, we got four.  (We had a... (More)

Names
Don't ever name your child the same name as you. It confuses everyone, from doctors to insurance carriers to airlines. USAir and United won't let me check-in online any more, since it can't figure out what to do with Jonathan and me. We both have different frequent flyer numbers, but it is... (More)

Counting Trampoline, Pumping Swings, Running
On Friday, we all had fun on the Kuhns' new indoor trampoline. I showed Will how we used to count while jumping, and he jumped and counted (by ones) all the way to 100. He did not make himself start over if he missed a jump, he just kept jumping until he remembered the next number. But Alissa... (More)
