Quote of the Day

Jonas (crying): Ow, ow, ow!
Mommy: What happened?!?
Jonas (holding a cracker): My cracker hit me!

Hopping!



After getting dressed for bed, Jonas and Bethany spent some time playing in Jonas' room before bed. They are really goofy!

Just a side note: Jonas has decided it's fun to put an "y" sound at the end of random words all the time. He puts on his "sockies" and drinks his "drinkie" from his "cuppy"....you get the idea. Hopefully he's still not doing that a year from now...

Cars Jammies!


It was bath night for Jonas and Bethany tonight, and afterwards Bethany did not want to get dressed. Jonas offered her some of his Cars jammies, and that solved the problem!

Quotes of the Day

Jonas: I hurt.
Mommy: What hurts?
Jonas: My head.
Mommy: Anything else?
Jonas: My legs.




Mommy (noticing that Jonas had emptied out the cupboard): Look at this mess!
Jonas: Goofy, Donald, Mickey, and Pluto did it.

Sick :(

Jonas is sick today. Papa worked from home today so we let Jonas sleep in. Papa went to get him up and 10:30 am and he was sleeping in his own vomit. I felt so bad that I didn't know he was sick during the night. Poor baby! He hasn't gotten sick at all today but he won't eat either. He has a fever, and keeps telling me his tummy "hurts!". I forced some tylenol down him for the fever and put him to bed. Hopefully he'll feel better when he wakes up!

Happy Birthday Aunt Lisa!!

Happy Birthday Aunt Lisa! Ok, so it's a little late, but her party was just on Saturday. We made her a "desk" cake to celebrate her new job and her birthday, and all of Aunt Lisa's friends, including their children, came over for a big party. Jonas got to meet 3 new friends, Layla, Kai, and Isaac. We ended up with 3 toddlers and 3 babies under 1. Needless to say, Jonas had a great time running around and playing with all of them. He also enjoyed the treats and story time with Papa!

Beach Time!



Jonas went to the indoor beach at the Eastern Hills Mall on Saturday with Bethany and his new friends, Kai and Layla. Dora and Diego were there, but Jonas was afraid of them so I couldn't get his picture with them. Of course, as soon as they left, he asked where they went. Regardless, he had a great time playing with the sand. Summer can't come fast enough...

Movies!


Uncle Mike and Aunt Mary invited us to bring Jonas to the movies a couple of weeks ago. His first movie in a theater! We saw "Bedtime Stories", and Jonas spent most of the time going back and forth between me and Aunt Mary and not watching too much of the movie. But, when it was over, he told me all about his favorite parts! It's amazing that he knew anything about it...

Potty Training

Well, we are trying pull-ups. Jonas is still going potty but doesn't have to get frustrated by having accidents all the time. We'll keep trying!

Potty Training - Day Two

9:30 AM - By the end of the day yesterday, Jonas had gone through 10 pairs of underwear. He's only awake 9 hours out of the day! However, this morning has started very well! 2 times in the potty, no accidents!

12:30 PM - Jonas is napping. We were having a great morning; no accidents until 10:45. Then...7 accidents before nap time! How can a kid pee 7 times in one hour and 45 minutes?? I feel guilty, but I am happy for nap time. 2 hours without cleaning up pee...

8:30 PM - Jonas is in bed. We ran out of clean underwear around 7:00. We might be going to pull-ups...we'll give it one more day.

Quote of the Day

Jonas: I want to drink pop.
Me: No, you're a little boy.
Jonas: No, I'm Joe!

Potty Training - Day One

I started potty training Jonas today, since I have a week off of work. Here is how our morning began:

Me: Jonas, do you want to wear big boy underwear and go in the potty today?
Jonas: No.
Me: Don't you want to be a big boy?
Jonas: No.
Me: You will get a treat every time you go in the potty.
Jonas: Okay.

Following that, Jonas has gone through about 5 pairs of underwear, and has peed on the floor, rug, and chair. One time he went potty on the floor he told me, "Mommy, I'm drippin!". He has gone in the potty a couple of times now, but the last time he peed on the floor and then exclaimed, "Mommy, potty!" This could be a long week...

Shapes!




Jonas is getting better at his shapes - although things tend to be circles if he's not sure!

Great Grandma's


Jonas had a lot of fun visiting Great Grandma last week. He even got to eat a "picnic" dinner on her kitchen floor!
