Visited States
Somehow I missed it when Janet posted her visited states post. I think I have this right, though I don't remember all of these states, so maybe it doesn't count if I just know that I drove through them but can't remember anything about them. (my visited country map wouldn't be that exciting,... (More)

26 Weeks
Had another prenatal appointment yesterday. All is well. She found the heartbeat right away this time, but Jon couldn't find it himself. He is too cautious - but I'd sure rather he be too gentle than too rough! We had to wait a little while because there was a new baby born this morning. He... (More)

The Fascinating Ever-Changing Properties of Breastmilk
A woman I know has been having breastfeeding troubles with her three month old. She firmly believes in the superiority of breastmilk and nursing, and so has persisted through the discouragement (implicit and from other people, including pediatrician) and is using a lactation supplementer instead...

Independence, Singing
Jon made Jonathan a lightswitch stick so that he (Jonathan) can turn on and off the lights himself. It is a dowel with a loop of wire fastened to the end. When Grammy and Auntie E were here, Jonathan demonstrated the first observed completion of the USA puzzle all by himself. Before, I had... (More)

"It's Dripping Everywhere"
That statement by Jonathan is what I woke up to from my nap this afternoon. It has worked before - to let him play quietly by himself while I take my nap. But today, well, he just tried to be a little more independent than he's truly capable of. He crawled up onto the bed and stood up next to... (More)

No verification of the registration information is required, so feel free to sign up as many times as you like with random... (More)

"Driving" and Geography
We went to the Kuhns' for dinner Thursday evening and at one point Will wanted to go out and ride his bike. Previously, he and Jonathan had been playing with playdough. I asked Jonathan to wash his hands (it was homemade dough and goopy) while I washed the cookie cutters and other playdough... (More)

22 Weeks
Had another prenatal appointment this morning. Blood pressure great; measuring a little big, but still within normal. I have felt like all of a sudden the last week or so, my belly has "popped out." Baby was moving so much it took a while to locate the heartbeat, but it was definitely there.... (More)

Memory and Imitation
One reason Jonathan talks so well is because we talk to him like a real person. Children learn by hearing and by imitating. It is sometimes amusing to hear the things that he says. For example, he got a valentine's day card from Aunt Ellie, and as he saw the stickers on the back and was... (More)
