Our Little Prince

Wow, I am tired this morning!  Daddy woke me up many hours too early to get the day started.  I know that it is the same time every day, but I don’t always have a night like I did last night.

I don’t know what it is, I just felt really lonely in my big boy bed when it was time to go night night.  I wanted Mommy and Daddy in there with me, but when they were in there I couldn’t help but try to entertain them.  I should have just rolled over and gone to sleep but I just could not shake off the day.  I finally went to sleep but woke up again in the middle of the night sometime because I had a bad dream.   I was able to fall back asleep by myself, but both of these have just got me wiped out today.  Maybe I can score some coffee off Grammy this morning and perk up a little.

I have found that there is one thing that I really like and that is cars!  Not just any cars, but “cool” cars, you know, like the ones in the movie.  My favorite is Lightning McQueen.  I have lots of Cars stuff, a regular Lightning, a Lightning with bugs in his teeth, a Mac truck with trailer that talks, a Mater truck, bed, sheets, blanket….oh wow, I am perking up thinking about this now.  I find that I am able to relax at bedtime when I have Lightning there with me, which I don’t understand, since I lay in Lighnting, put my head on top of Lightning and cover up with Lightning.  Has anyone seen my bed?  I will show you a picture!

Click on the picture to get one for you too! If you get the bed you will need some cool sheets to put on it, so here is bunches of them, click here.

I was looking around the webby screen and found tons of really neat things that have cool Cars stuff.  I saw that you can even get thingies to hold up the water blocker curtain thing on the bathtub, now I am pretty sure Mommy and Daddy are not going to get those, but they are neato!   Wanna see some of the cool Cars stuff I found?  Click here, and it will bring up my shopping list, pretty much anything on it with do.  heee heee heee.  If you need to know where to send these things you can ask my Mommy and Daddy since I don’t really know much about all that yet.

In more news, I have been working hard on my words.  There is lots that I can say now, well there always has been, but there is lots that people seem to understand that I say now.  I try to repeat everything that I hear at least once, so if you see me, be careful.  If you don’t like what you say you won’t like it any more coming out of my mouth.  Usually Mommy and Daddy will repeat things when I try to say them to help me along in remembering the words and get them to come out right.  You have to use your whole mouth on some of these words.  They don’t just fall out like a lot of what I have been saying.  I have to work my bottom mouth, tongue and lips to get them to sound right.  That is some hard stuff to get to come together, but I am getting better and will keep practicing.

Well, I had better get myself in gear, have a big day of learning to do.

Love ya!

Hey everyone, just wanted to let you all know that my birthday video is up and live out on YouTube!

Yeah, I am a superstar!

Check this out:

CHRISTMAS

Well, Christmas was great.  I was just a little confused about it last year, but this year I think I have about got it figured out.  For some reason both years, Mommy and Daddy sat me down on this guys lap named “Santa”.  I wasn’t really comfortable with him, but pictures were taken and he didn’t bother me, so maybe next year I will be better about sitting on his lap.  I’m not really sure yet why I have to sit on his lap, but it somehow seems to be part of this whole Christmas thing. 

About a week before Christmas, Papaw Joe and Mamma Deb brought some gifts over for me and Matthew for Christmas.

On Christmas morning, Daddy and I went down to Fairborn to pick up Matthew.  When we got back, there were a whole bunch of presents in the living room around our Christmas tree (another thing that has to do with this time of year, though I don’t really know why).  We both opened our gifts, and got lots of cool presents, I got a recliner (you will see me lounging in it in a picture below) and Matthew got an Xbox 360.  We also got lots of other cool things.  Some of my favorites were cars.  I got lots of cars, and have been having a blast playing with them. 

After we opened our gifts, we head to Mamma Diane’s and Papaw Bruce’s for Christmas and got more gifts and a meal.  By this time I was getting really good at opening them.  After that we went to Mamma Loretta’s and Papaw Wilbur’s for more gifts and food.

I have decided that Christmas is a pretty cool time of year.

MY 2^ND BIRTHDAY

On Sunday, January 3^rd, a big event occurred.  Yours truly (me) turned two years old.  This was also a fabulous day, just like Christmas…except that I was the only one receiving gifts.  That was pretty awesome, and it made me feel very special.  Papaw Joe and Mamma Deb had my birthday party at their house.  We had pizza, an awesome “Cars” birthday cake, and lots of fun playing with my new toys.  Kristin and Paige showed me how to play with the toys, and Mommy gave me a great big huggy and kissy when 1:47 PM came (she says this is the time I was born).  I really want to thank everyone for coming to my party, and for all the cool gifts I got.  Daddy is working on my birthday video…hopefully it will be posted soon.

MY TWO-YEAR DOCTOR’S APPOINTMENT

Thursday night I started getting really sick.  Mommy and Daddy laid me down for a nap around 4:00 PM because I was really tired and wanted to go night-night.  At 6:30 PM, I woke up and got sick all over in my crib.  Daddy came to rescue me and put me in the bathtub while Mommy got to work at cleaning my sheets and stuff up.  Problem is, I just kept getting sick over and over again.  Mommy says she lost count after about seven times.  She was glad I had a doctor’s appointment the next day, so that the doctor could check me out and give me some medicine if I needed it.  After finally going to sleep Thursday night, I slept until 10:30 the next morning when Mommy came in to check on me and was feeling my head.  By the time my doctor’s appointment came that afternoon, I was feeling pretty good but still wasn’t eating anything.  The doctor said that I either had a case of food poisoning, or had a virus.  Either way, that was the last I saw of those sickies.  Mommy says I have been pretty lucky.  It has been a long time since I have gotten sick.

I didn’t have to get any shots!  The doctor said I am good until kindergarten…which to me seems so far away.  Although, Mommy swears she is going to wake up tomorrow and have to take me there.  She says she will miss me.  Anyhow, here are the facts from my doctor’s appointment.

I am exactly 36 inches tall and am the 90^th percentile for my age

I am 31.5 Lbs and in the 86^th percentile for my age

So, I think I am going to be a tall guy just like my daddy.  I’m glad, because Mommy is a shorty.  As my Auntie Chelsea always says…I will probably be taller than her by the time I am six years old.

Well, gotta go run and play! 

Later!

Love,

Jonathan
