Today has been a beautiful Fall Day!
We woke up around 6:30 this morning. JH started the morning off by saying "WET". So up we were!
While having a little breakfast JH was commenting on how dark it was outside. As the morning grew it started getting lighter and lighter. As I was getting JH his morning banana I heard "it's smoking"! We had a cool night last night so there was a lot of low lying fog and frost on the ground. It was cute! Every other bite was..."smoke".
After breakfast JH and I took our 4 mile walk into town. The temperature was nice and brisk and the leafs were slowly falling from the trees. As we were walking I asked JH what color is that tree. He looked puzzled and said "GREEN". I said "no it's not green it's red". Then I realized that on our walks we would point things out and say what color is it. I guess all of my conditioning of the green tree stumped him. It was truly a great day for a walk.
We came back and played in the yard for a bit before Daddy called us in for lunch. Daddy was impressed with his new creation of turkey hot dogs, macncheese and a can of creamed corn. We are trying to get more creative with our lunches. As a snack I gave JH a few bites of pumpkin ice cream. He loved it and kept saying..."delicious".
Later in the day JH and I walked out back and played in the yard for a bit. Shortly thereafter Daddy wrapped up his work day and was joining us. It was such a seasonably great day that we drove around admiring the changing of leaves.
Dinner time. We found out that Jonathan really enjoys chicken Boca burgers. Boca burgers are a vegetarian patties. Usually we have a little hesitation with dinner, not tonight!
We've had a hard time teaching JH when it's appropriate to say I'm sorry. A few words that we just couldn't get him to say. As of a few days ago he's starting to say it and this evening he was pushing his shopping cart with Elmo in it. He accidentally tipped the cart and sent Elmo flying. It was a true accident and before we new it JH was saying "I'm sorry Elmo". We immediately gave JH positive reinforcement for his actions towards this accident.
We are wrapping up our night with a few more minutes of play...then off to bed we go.
