We spent the majority of the day today at the Liberty Science Center. They have been focusing on a new dinosaur exhibit, so I thought we'd try it out. We were also able to get into a live animal show as well. Jonathan was amazing; he was the epitome of a perfect kid (not even the threat of a sit-and-think). He was a little afraid of the giant T-Rex at first, but warmed up to "Sue" and wanted to revisit it later in the day. In the show, he touched a tortoise, which confused him because we've called them all turtles, and a boa constrictor; we also saw a tarantula and a Frilled Lizard.
Without specific examples, we can hold full conversations now. Jonathan is so verbal and cognizant of likes/dislikes and his environment. It's just amazing. He tries new words like "stupendous" and "tarantula" without getting frustrated if it doesn't come out quite right. It's so neat.
He's doing so much better now with his bronchitis. I suspect it's nearly gone. I, on the other hand, have a hacking cough and a runny nose now. ugh. Dave's not doing much better either.
Happy Birthday, Aunt Vicki!!
