Our Little Prince

There has been a lot going on, and I have been so busy I haven’t had time to write.  I will try to get you all updated the best I can.

First of all, the main thing that has been keeping me busy is this whole potty training thing.  Everybody wants me to go pee pee and poo poo on the big person potty all the time.  Sometimes it is all good….I get candy whenever I go on the potty.  But, other times…I just don’t want to take the time out to do it.  It’s so much easier for me to just go in my pants, even though I still have to take the time out to get changed.  I have been doing pretty well overall though, and will tell you when I want to go pee pee…either because I have to, or because I want a piece of candy and want to squeeze out a few drops just to get one. Everybody makes a big deal out of it, which makes me feel good, but sometimes I am just not in the mood.  Believe me, I am a moody little guy!  I can be squealing with delight one second and throwing a fit over something crazy the next.  I like to keep Mommy on her toes…it’s fun!  Being predictable is boring if you ask me.

Another thing that has taken up a lot of my time is my new interest in some shows on television.  It all started with the movie Cars with Lightening McQueen, Mater, and the gang (if you know me at all, you know this).  My next movie was Walle.  I took a limited interest in this one, but enough of one to always want to wear my Walle pajamas to bed.  Then I started getting in to Bob the Builder.  Wow, I got Mommy and Daddy to keep that on the TV most of the day yesterday.  They get tired of watching the same five cartoons all the time, but I love it.  Also, I like Roary the Racecar.  We only have one cartoon of him and it is on my Thomas The Train DVD.  Yeah…I don’t get into Thomas as much as Mommy thought I would.  Like I said, I like to keep her guessing.  There are quite a few other shows I like to watch as well, mostly at Grandma Diane’s and Aunt Hess’s (Chelsea’s) house.  They have Direct TV and can put anything on for me at any time.  Mommy says it costs too much to get that at home.  Maybe you all can talk to her about that.

Halloween is all over now.  I had a lot more fun this year than I did last year, because I understood what was going on this time.  A week before Halloween, Mommy and I carved our pumpkins.  Mommy carved mine first.  She kept trying to get me to help her take out all the insides of it, but even though I love to get messy, I wanted to be unpredictable again and not help her out.  After she was all done and lit up my pumpkin, I told her to carve hers.  Hers was a lot bigger and she looked like she was getting tired this time, so I helped out by taking about 10 handfuls of the insides out for her.  This made her really happy, but as soon as she went to get her camera I stopped helping.  I didn’t want her having proof that I helped her out.  Anyhow, I did let her take pictures of me after we got them all done. See below…

Trick-or-Treating was a lot of fun this year.  I really didn’t want to get into my outfit because I just thought it was weird.  Why do I want to look like Clifford the Big Red Dog?  I mean, that would be like someone dressing up as me.  Clfford is Clifford, and I am me…that’s just the way it should be.  Once I got it on and saw the reactions of everyone I started to like it though.  I do like to make people happy *sometimes*.  Then, Aunt Hess and some scary thing came over to our house.  I didn’t like this thing at all, and let out a little (not big, I AM a tough guy ya know) cry.  Everyone made him take off his face then, and I was afraid…if this thing looked this bad, what is it going to look like if it takes it’s face off?!?!  Hey!  It’s Trenten!  I warmed up to him a little after that, but still kept a good eye on him whenever he got near, and hid behind other people.  Thank Goodness, Trenten got hot in the mask and ended up going about half of the beggar’s night wearing it on the top of his head.  This made me feel MUCH better.  Here are some pictures and a video of us Trick-Or-Treating…

Other than that, I can’t think of much more to talk about…other than the fact that I am talking a lot more.  I love to talk on the phone!  I will often ask Mommy and Daddy to call someone so I can talk to them.  This is a lot of fun and they always seem happy to hear from me, though I don’t think they always understand everything I am saying.  Usually I am talking about whatever I see in the room I am in when I talk to them.  It’s hard to think of things to talk about sometimes so I just start pointing out all the things in the room. 

Well, I better run!  I feel a need for candy coming on…time to tell Mommy it’s time to go pee pee.

Love,
Jonathan

My site got attacked by someone!

It was working the other day and then it suddenly stopped working. Daddy said that someone used some kind of injection hack to get into it. Poor site, when I get injections at the doctors it hurts. So Daddy spent some time fixing me all up and getting the site back up, there may still be a warning when you come here, that should be gone very soon so everyone can enjoy reading my posts once again.

Just a note to those who did this to my site, you are mean poo-poo heads, pardon my language. Who does mean things to someone who is only 2 1/2 years old?

I know the answer to that I think, since our new doggy was mean to me again. When I am running around being myself she likes to nip at me. She has left marks before but today she was really mean. I was bounding off to the kitchen and she nipped the back of my leg and left a red welt on the back of my leg the size of a quarter. Daddy is pretty mad about this, I don’t think she will be around very long if she does something like that again. I could end up with some kind of scar or something on my emotions that might make me not like animals when I get older, or be mean to them, or be afraid of them. I hope that doesn’t happen, I don’t know much about any of that, but it sounds like it could be a bad thing. But when doggy does bad things like that Mommy helps me get through it, she gave me lots of hugs and kisses, that must help keep my emotions from being scarred.

I found a real neat treat the other day. Daddy found it at Menards in Sidney when we went out shopping, it’s called Chex Mix and it is amazing! I got a whole great big bag of it! You have got to try this if you haven’t already.

Mommy and Daddy have been working hard to make our bathroom all new again, they have been doing a pretty good job so far. We got new walls in our tub, a new sink, lights, wals, ceiling…it’s not all the way done yet, but it is getting pretty close. I will put up some pictures when they let me.

So how about that heat? It has been a pretty hot month here and I hear the real scorcher is next month, wow, hotter? I am scared of that.

Well, I have got to head off for a nap, then I am going to eat a roast that Mommy made. Yummy!

Love ya!

Last night I went to the Spring Carnival at the Shelby County Fairgrounds just up the street from our house.   I had such a good time, I rode a bunch of rides and Matty won me a car by popping some balloons with sharp things. Here are a couple of videos of my adventures:

A lot of things have happened since I last got on and let everyone know what is going on.  I can’t believe it was so cold out the last time I wrote anything on here, which was a really long time ago.  My laptop has a lot of limitations when it comes to getting on the internet, so I have to try to get some time with Mommy and Daddy’s computers.  They told me I could use them whenever I want, I just have to ask but I am not good at asking for things, I have become great at demanding them though.  This, I am learning, is not the greatest way to get what I want, but it is a good way to get into trouble.

Mommy and Daddy's Rings

So on to some big news that happened while I was away, Mommy and Daddy got married.  They went to some Amish land up north, far, far away together and came back wearing rings.  I didn’t go because it was too far to drive for me, I would not have liked it, and there wasn’t really anything for me to do up there.  I got to stay with my Grampa Joe and Grammy Deb that weekend; I had a lot of fun.

We celebrated Mattys 11^th birthday a few weeks back.  Everybody met up at a big park and Daddy made yummy stuff on a hot box there.  We had chips and all sorts of different things.  Matty got a neato flying thing and lots of money to buy more things that he wants.  Mommy and Daddy got him a new bike, it is really cool, I like to just go out to the garage sometimes and look at it.  It is orange and white and has all sorts of cool cables and stuff on it.  I can’t wait until I get big enough to ride one of those; it looks really fun.

Daddy has been fixing up an old bike that Mommy got a long time ago from Grammy.  He put new tires on it and stuff on the handlebars and seems like he is doing something with it all the time to make it the best thing on Earth.  Matty and Daddy took a ride on their bikes yesterday and were gone for a really long time.  They must have rode far; I went to sleep and woke up when they were coming back.  This is why I think it would be so much fun to be big enough to ride one of those, if they went for that long then it must be.

Spring is finally here.  The weather is getting really warm outside.  I am going outside a lot more because of it.  Daddy and Papaw built me a new swing set and I just can’t get enough of that thing.  It is so much fun to just go flying through the air and feel it go through your hair.  It really relaxes me, until I have to get out.  Watch out when I have to get out of my swing, I will blow a gasket.  I don’t know what it means to blow a gasket, but it must have something to do with throwing a fit because I have heard people say it before talking about that. Here is me swinging:

Mommy and Daddy bought this seat thing with wheels from my Uncle Jo Jo and Aunt Hess today.  I guess they hook it up to their bikes somehow and take me along when they go for bike rides.  I can’t wait to see how this works, it sounds really fun and I love doing things with Mommy and Daddy.

I forgot how hard it is to update everything, remembering and typing it all out.  There are a lot of things I am forgetting but there is just not enough time to get it all typed out, and my little fingers are getting really tired so I have to stop right now.  I will be back soon though to tell everyone more.

Love ya!
