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)

Music Meme
I had heard of memes before, hadn't paid much attention until Adrian Drury mentioned it a couple weeks ago on snurgle, and today I noticed a post on Oscar's blog inviting me to participate. Total size of music files in my computer 1003 songs, 62 hours, 3.88GB Last record bought... (More)

Ladder
I realized this morning that we didn't ever post about going to the Pasteriks a month ago or so. Jonathan had lots of fun with the animals, but what I thought was neat is that he figured out how to climb up the ladder to go down the slide.Unfortunately, the grass was pretty wet, so his diaper...

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)

Robins
In my research on robins, I found this spectacular site called A Robin's Diary with videos and day-by-day updates. I picked a great time to take photos of our nest today - the parents had just come back from worm hunting when I got inside. I haven't put the pictures on the computer yet, but... (More)

Email Random Signature Generation
I wrote a random signature generator for Pine, my email client. It worked great for a number of years, but with a recent upgrade of Pine, it started having trouble a couple of times a day, where the signature would be correctly rotated, but Pine would hang prior to sending the message, and would...

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)

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)

Kisses and Sneezes
The other night when it was time to say, "good night" to Daddy, Jonathan kept leaning over for kisses, and once even pursed his lips the right way! The other day, I sneezed and he repeated, "ah-djoo!" This morning, he sneezed, I said, "God bless you" and he repeated, "bess you." (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)
