Dr.Seuss
Jonathan has fallen in love with Dr.Seuss. He will quote from the books while we are doing other things, and laugh - "Pat, cat, No, that!" He also can identify most of the words in Hop On Pop, likely at this point by the illustrations rather than the words themselves. One thing that I really... (More)

Putting Words Together
Jonathan is great at couplets now, for example, "yellow button" "dry diaper" "one hand." He is also increasing his use of complete sentences. One thing he said yesterday was "Yes please, Daddy" which is the first time ever that he has said all three in a row like that for a request. (More)

Word Association
Jonathan was playing with Heather's hair band, and was calling it a bandand, his word for rubber band, (close to his word for baid-aid: bandane)Heather encouraged him to call it a rubber band, and he made the face that means, "that word is too hard for me to say", so I just said, "rubber", but he...

Weekend Sailing Adventures, Part II (aka Capsized!)
Sunday after church Jon suggested we go sailing again since we did not make it the day before. After lunch, we headed out again, this time to North Park because it is closer. The wind was strong, the best we've had in Pittsburgh so far. However, it was also gusty and changed direction a lot in... (More)

Good Sailing on the River
On Monday after dinner, Jon said, "How about if we go sailing?" So we packed up and headed down to the boat ramp near his work - on the Monongehela almost under the Birmingham bridge.The wind was nice and strong this time, the best we've had on the river. Because we are now confident with the... (More)

Tiptoes, Gate, Zero
On Tuesday, Jonathan discovered how to stand on tiptoes, and he thought it was great fun and asked me to "Watch!" him and share in his joy. Yesterday, he figured out how to open the front gate. So now keeping him inside the fence is truly a matter of discipline and not force. But he understands... (More)

Mail Statistics
It is a new month, and therefore, a new point on my email graph . A couple interesting things this month: one, you can tell I went on vacation, and probably also that I knew Heather was gone the week before, so I wasn't emailing her as much either. Two, spam has now hit the 30% mark (note: the... (More)

Jonathan Highlights
Colors - just before we left for vacation, Jonathan and I were sitting on our tshirt quilt. I pointed out a yellow sun, and he repeated me. Then he pointed to another yellow sun and named it, then to a blue shirt and said "blue", to a green shirt and said "green" and finally to a black shirt... (More)

Video Projector
After a lot of deliberation, we (mostly myself, as Heather thinks it is neat, but not really worth the money) decided to get a movie projector, screen and surround sound system. It is a fair amount of money, but is fun.I used my birthday money (Thanks Grandpa and Mom!) to help pay for it. We... (More)

Water Play
Jonathan and I were taking a bath this morning when he stuck his face in the water and blew bubbles, his own idea! He has been much more willing to explore floating and "swimming" since he played in the Kuhns' medium sized kiddie pool the other week. With all the splashing, we had drained the... (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)

The Itsy Bitsy Spider
I have come to a new appreciation of that little spider. When I was a child I always thought it was a rather stupid creature not aware of its surroundings, just blindly walking into a place that was obviously not safe. However, as I think about it now, I find that spider to be a model of... (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)

Incredibles
I was reminded of the Incredibles today by a slashdot article , and I went looking for the "Everyone's special, Dash." "That's just another way of saying nobody is." quote, and came across this guy's review of the movie. Interesting. (More)
