When we first started planning Jonathan's room I asked Rick where the TV should go and he was appalled. "Jon! A two year old does NOT need a TV in their room!" I reluctantly agreed. After more than a week of "T" "ELMO" "T" "ELMO". . . you get it; Rick went to MI City today and bought a TV/DVD for Jonathan's bookshelf.
Jonathan woke-up SO crabby this morning. I'm not sure if it was that his pillow was on the floor and it really seemed to bug him when he noticed. He was fixated on the pillow saying "oops" "oops" "pillow". Needless to say going on the potty just didn't go well. Maybe we should have spent more time talking about the pillow and let him fix it. I just picked it up and said that's okay, let's go potty. He said some things (i really didn't understand...humor), and I said some things (again, humor), and before you know it he was in the time-out chair.
Da Da got up and saved the day. I went in to start my work day and I could hear Jonathan say "DA DA" in a save me kind of way. The day seemed to go well but even though I was planning on taking PTO I was swamped at work. In fact, I'm still sitting in my office trying to get an email out that some folks are reviewing before I hit send. I know Da Da is exhausted and hopefully the day we're planning at the zoo later this week will give him the much needed rest.
I also found an amazing deal on an aftermarket car DVD player. It's a set of two 7" DVD players that mount to the head-rest for $107 delivered.

I have no doubt that these will make trips to gramma and grandpa's house way more enjoyable.
Jonathan played with the toys he received at his sprinkle today. The room is a mess with the magnetic letters from the dry erase easel that Gina and Nina gave him. I also saw him playing with the soccer ball from my office window this afternoon. Sorry Kelly, all he did on the stool you made was have two time-outs. AND, thanks to the Supper Nanny book you gave me, that's where we learned about how and when to enforce time-out.
That child can eat! He had dinner at 5:30 and ate everything we could throw at him. I know we're giving him enough and balancing it with protein, fruit, and veg. Should we keep feeding him more and more if he wants it? We ended the dinner feast with a banana hoping that would fill him up. He was finally satisfied :-)
PJs, Bed, and not a word again other than "ga night".
