playing outside

Since it stays light longer now, I thought we'd take Jonathan outside to play for a bit this evening. It was quite a bit cooler than I had expected, so we were only out there about 15 minutes, but he seemed to have a good time. And of course I had to take some pictures...




Little man(n) turned 18 months old yesterday if you can believe it! We're on the downhill slide to 2 years old. Where has the time gone? Jonathan is such a joy to be around. He's a very busy little boy; he loves to dance & sing and he talks all. the. time! Although, most of the time we have no idea what he's saying. Since we have his well baby visit on Tuesday, and I know they'll ask, I started a list of all of the words he can say:

Mama
Daddy
Doggie
Cow
Meow
Birdie (that's a new one from today!)
Juice
Bana (banana)
Please
Thank You
Uh-Oh
Oh-No
Go
Yoyo (yogurt)
Cookie
Toot toot (like a train, with hand motions & everything!)
Ball
I'm not sure how to write it out but he can say he wants to brush his teeth

I know that there are more than these, but I can't think of them. He's got quite the vocabulary, don't you think?

Yesterday I went scrapping with the girls. We reserved the common room in Rebecca's mom's apartment building and it was quite lovely. I wasn't too productive; I only did two pages, one of which I had A LOT of help from Rebecca & Jenni. Rebecca & I had a great time playing with Laurel's camera; we had a little photo shoot. I have to admit that I'm quite afraid of some of the pictures that might show up on other people's blogs. I'll just put this out there.... I have not so flattering photos too, and I'm not afraid to use them!

Well, I'm pretty tired, so I think I'll just head on out... until next time!
