Jonathan Day 38

The day was one of the best we have had in weeks.  Jonathan was sweet all day until about 30 minutes before bed and then we discovered a poopie diaper while Da Da was playing horsey.  Luckily there was no leakage.  Da Da said this diaper feels like it might be wet.  Well, it was more than wet!  This is the very first #2 diaper in 38 days.  Ugh.  Not very pleasant and he wasn't happy either.  He did his business this afternoon and we didn't expect a #2 of #2.

We filled Jonathan's pool this morning (actually he helped) so it would warm-up by the late afternoon.  We all went out and he was hesitant to get in until Daddy and Da Da took our shoes off and went in first.  After he and Da Da started playing I snuck away to a nice chair in the shade and watched.  They were cracking me up.  Rick would dunk the ball in the pool and Jonathan would laugh like crazy when it popped out of the water (see pic above).

They  played in the pool for a long time and decided after a quick rinse off we would go to Wendy's for a Frosty.  Not a good idea at 3:30PM when dinner is at 5:00.  I was in the kitchen cooking the adults dinner (spicy cashew chicken) when Rick came in and said he's done!  I guess he flung his mashed potatoes and corn chowder behind him and it hit the dining room wall.  Not to mention the enormous (Sesame Street word of the day) amount of energy a Frosty gives a two year old.

Today was also a hugged filled day.  He was so loving today.  When Da Da and Jonathan were leaving to go to the park, he ran in to my office to give me a hug, kiss, and to say "I love you".

Before I say how easy bedtime was I have to mention that we have been doing the 1, 2, 3, count when he isn't listening and it's working!!  I know it might only last a short time but we'll figure-out the next trick :-)  For anyone that know Star Trek; I said a few days ago that Jonathan is like The Borg, you can shoot about 3 times and then his defenses adapt, and your phaser doesn't work anymore.

Day 39 is going to be awesome!!
