Credit Card Processing
I had figured it would be too expensive for Lime Daley to accept credit cards, but Citibank recently sent an advertisement that they did card processing that didn't have annual fees. Presumably, they have higher transaction fees to make up for that, but no, they don't! They don't have... (More)

Water Recycling
I have discovered a fun and convenient way to water our plants. Our air conditioner drips about a gallon of water a day if we run it all afternoon. If I put our watering can under the drip, it fills it in addition to keeping water off the porch carpet. Then the next day, I have a full watering... (More)

Robin Observation
The chicks have started preening themselves. I opened the smaller panel. It would be a nice view except that the outside is very dirty with last year's (and maybe this years') droppings. It's not so great for looking and abysmal for the camera. I waffle back and forth between which panel to... (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. I once overheard a neighbor boy across the street complain to his aunt, "That baby is so annoying, he just keeps saying 'hi.' " But the other day, Jonathan did... (More)

New Words and Stuff
5/8 - "I got it"; maybe "I love you"; when I got a candle at church for Mother's Day, I told Jonathan it was one of the smelly kinds, and he held it up to my nose. 5/9 - "Mommy" !!!!!! You know, there is just something so sweet and heart-melting when his little voice says "mommy." I didn't... (More)

Zoo and Other Adventures
On April 27, we went to the Zoo with Alissa, Will, Nate, and Sam. I sang to Jonathan the "We're going to the zoo" song and he repeated, "zoo, zoo, zoo!" He also repeated "cheetah" but he growled at the bears on his own. The elephants were much larger in real life than he expected and he 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)

Sometimes it's hard to tell exactly when he says something, or to remember to write it down. So I've compiled a list of the words Jonathan can say. Maybe I'll even post comments as he adds words. apple ball bits blind (as in window) boo (as in jumping around a corner to surprise... (More)

Cute Things
On March 31, Jonathan was playing with his little people. He put a girl on one of the circus cars so that she was lying down, said, "night night" and put his head down on the coffee table. On April 3, all three of us were downstairs together while Jonathan was taking a bath. It was time to get... (More)

We finished with states a while back, did continents, and are now working on countries in Africa. We... (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)

Unenforceable Laws
While looking up information on the Pennsylvania Use Tax (which is another story for another day) I found a regulation that states that tourists in PA who stay longer than 7 days are required to pay Use Tax on items that they brought into the commonwealth and used while they were here. How... (More)
