On Wednseday, we took Jonas to the zoo for the first time. I'll save that story for another blog. But, we had a great time and he really loved the penguins. I love how much he has grown up, and yet, I want to keep him young. I'm trying to savor every moment. Something he likes to do to calm himself is to play with my hair. He does it when he's tired, when he's upset, or when he just needs some TLC. Sometimes it drives me crazy, but then Ryan always reminds me...he's not going to do it forever. One day, I'll wake up and realize, he does not play with my hair anymore. Kinda makes me sad to realize...he will grow up...he's doing it everyday.
It surprised me a few weeks ago when I heard him counting to 10. It surprised me when he started saying the ABC's (sometimes omitting sections or placing then somewhere else). It surprised me when he starting going to the bathroom (although we are nowhere near potty trained). Yes, he's full of surprises. Even though I don't want him to grow up, I look forward even more to the surprises that the next year will bring.
