2010_01_16 Saturday

This morning, Jonathan decided he wanted to wear big-boy underware inside his pull-up. By the time we got home from the diner, he was soaked. I wanted to just change him so we could go to the zoo since it's a pretty nice day, but he insisted on 'only underwear' (ie no diaper/pull-up), so I opted to hang out here for a bit. I was just playing with Jonathan in his room, and he tried to tell me that one of his play vegetables was a "chickenplant." Very clever since it was actually an EGGplant.

He's also mastered a normal puzzle. We have one of four trucks with 4x4 interlocking pieces (like a normal puzzle) that he can put together without any trouble at all. It's neat to watch; he puts the green one together first, then the red one on top, then the yellow one, and then the orange one. He's working on a yellow/purple dinosaur that has the cuts in the backboard, but there are more pieces, so it's a little harder. He needs a little coaching on that one. He can definitely put together the face, though. We're still working on recognizing the corner and flat pieces. I guess I can put the easy puzzles away now!

Maybe we'll have to try some chickenplants in the garden next year. What a great story.
