One more tooth, but still no little buddy...
I have two more very important things to tell you. The first one is that my second top tooth has broken through, even though you can't see it.
The second important thing is that Lucas and Cherissa have not had my little buddy yet. They've been at the hospital for a really long time...and I really want to meet my new friend. We're praying that the baby gets here soon!
Two new buddies for me...
I'm excited to tell you that some new little buddies are being born just for me! Yesterday, Nathan William was born. Nathan lives far away with his mommy and daddy, Mark and Jennie, but maybe we can take a big trip and meet him sometime.
I have another little buddy who will hopefully be born today. This baby's mommy & daddy, Lucas & Cherissa, are in the hospital here waiting for him/her to come. We don't know whether a girl or boy is coming or what the baby will be named, so it's going to be a big surprise. I just can't wait! I hope it's a boy, but no matter what it is, the more friends I have around here, the better.
Another Tooth!
I had another tooth pop through today! It's my first top tooth to come through. Since you can't see it yet, I thought I'd tell you that it's there so that you know about it.
Learning to Obey
Today, it happened. (And Mommy would say, "It finally happened.") I was crawling over to the outlets in the wall because I wanted to touch the really cool covers Mommy put on them. I love those covers, but Mommy always says, "Jonathan, no, don't touch." This time, I turned around when she said my name, and I didn't touch the outlet covers - even though I really wanted to. Mommy got pretty excited about that and told me I had obeyed her. Now I know what obeying is!
I tried to go over and touch the outlet covers a couple of other times to see what Mommy would do. She still said, "Jonathan, no, don't touch." And I obeyed her. Up until today, I had been listening to her, but she didn't know it.
Tomorrow, I'll try it again and see if she still tells me "No." I might obey her again to see if it still make her excited...or I might just think about it.
See Baby Ira
My posts are usually all about me, but today I need to tell you about Baby Ira. If you go over to the right, you'll see where Mommy put a link to his blog. He has his own movie today, September 22. I watched it with Daddy. We are thinking about Baby Ira a lot and praying for him a lot. He is still in the hospital! Mommy and Daddy and I hope you'll go to his September 22 post to see his movie, and we hope you'll pray for him, too.
The Good News and the Bad News
OK, I'll start with the bad news first. I have a cold. That's why you haven't seen any cute pictures of me lately-I'm not very cute when snot is dripping out of my nose. It's yucky.
Daddy says I caught my cold from him, and he's so sorry. I don't remember catching it, though. I remember him playing catch with me and the football, and I tried to catch that. I just don't remember playing catch with a cold. Maybe it's not the same thing.
Here's the good news: I might get to be as tall as Uncle Todd, just like I've been planning to do. Grandma was looking at Uncle Todd's baby book and found the part about his 9-month checkup. When he was nine months old, Uncle Todd was four pounds heavier than me, but guess what! He was more than an inch shorter!
Uncle Todd is my tallest relative, and it's hard to imagine he was ever as little as me. And it's really, really hard to imagine that I might be as tall as him someday. But, I'm sure going to try my hardest!
First, I need to get rid of this cold. Maybe I can throw it to Mommy.
