I am mostly recording this here as a reminder for my future self, but I hope you get a kick out of these moments as well. As an almost 3 year old, Jon definitely has his challenging days, but he is also so incredibly sweet, curious, and happy! Here are some moments I have enjoyed this week:
- "I...K...hey! That spells IKEA!" reading from the bottom of his breakfast plate on Saturday. I nearly cried, and had to call the grandparents. His first word to read on his own, and it is the name of a store...
- "This little piggy went to Target..." Oops...I guess he really does love his stores, doesn't he?
- "Mama, work this puzzle with me on the couch," or "Mama, come play with me, please," or "Mama, you can't do the laundry. You have to play with me."
- "Where did my penny go? Maybe I wost it." He has a toy penny. Yes, I know it is a choking risk, but he is kind of past putting random things in his mouth, and he LOVES to play with that penny.
- "Is Sigma so cute, Mama? I love her!" "Is that Mr. Knecht? (at church) I love Mr. Knecht!" "Is that Snoopy and Woodstock? I love Snoopy and Woodstock!" Pretty much any "Is that ____? I love ____!"
- "Where do we go on Tuesday?" Often at the breakfast table, we talk about the day to come. This morning, he started the conversation, and I was so impressed he knew that is Tuesday. It may have been a coincidence, of course!

I can't wait to see him now that he is speaking in full sentences -- and reading small words apparently!!! Crazy! He is growing up way too fast. :)
Keep documenting his firsts and cute-isms on here, please. I kinda love it.
