Jonathan, Jonathan, Jonathan

We had a playdate with a neighbor friend. Jonathan likes Dawson's excavator. Isn't it cool? It is battery powered, it scoops, the boom goes out...it's great. I think Jonathan would like one too.

This was May 3rd, a sunny, windy day. Jonathan enjoyed being outside with his loader tractor. He took dirt ("mud") from this area we just tilled and planted tall grass seed in, and carried it to the newly tilled garden. Hmmm...will we be growing pasture grass in the garden now?!

May 4...Daddy got home from work and came in the house. When he went out later to have Jonathan help him back the truck into the garage, Jonathan was "pumping up the truck"! He had the hose inside the tailpipe (fortunately, the truck was turned off!). He is fascinated with the bike pump. He will cart it around all afternoon, pumping up the wheelbarrow tires, the tires on the go-go car, his trike, his motorcycle (despite the fact that they're plastic). Whatever keeps him happy, right?

And this morning, May 5, Jonathan relaxed in our bathroom while Daddy showered. He was having a rough morning, didn't want to eat the yummy omelet Daddy made, didn't want his diaper changed, didn't want to do anything he was asked to do, wanted to say "no" to everything. So he finally was chilling with his snuggly, wooby, and the IPod with Enya.

My. You can just about see the wheels turn in his mind looking at his tractor with his hands behind his back. He is quite the little man... Sure wish we could see you more often.
