Kenny, Jonathon and I packed up Sunday afternoon and headed out to New Baltimore to the Bayorama festival to support my sister. My sister was running a hot dog stand (hot dog, chips, cookie, drink) for $5.00 to raise money for her 3 day walk(Breast Cancer) that is coming up in August. My sister is a 6 year survivor! (HOORAY) I love my sis very very much and will help her out in any way that I am able too.
Jonathon had a great time. He played the duckie game and won a car. After we chatted with Aunt Carol-Ann we went over to the swings, and playground and then headed down to the beach to walk/run in the water. We went down the boardwalk to look at all the water. Watched an owner with his dog playing fetch the stick in the water.
Kenny was just happy getting his large container of french fries ~ he loves french fries.
Then a storm was headed in so we packed back up and headed for home.
Good day!

I AM A BIG BOY NOW!!!!
This will be my very last post on Potty Training ~ Potty Training has been completed ~ June 18th I let Jonathon wear his underwear to bed ~ Jonathon has been wearing underwear full time ever since ~ I am proud to say ~ NO ACCIDENTS
Jonathon is starting to let me know when he has to go potty ~ he holdS his tummy and yells at me ~ if I am not in the room he comes and finds me ~ holding his tummy ~ if I ask Jonathon if he has to go potty ~ he will answer me yes or no ~ and I believe his answer now ~ I ask him if he needs to pee or poop ~ he answers and answers truthfully/correctly
Our goal is to get rid of his urinal this summer and use a step stool to stand on to pee ~ so he will be comfortable when he goes back to school in Sept ~ another goal is to get rid of his potty seat and get him to always sit on the big toilet without one ~ so again he is comfortable and ready to go back to school ~ and most of all work on him telling other people besides mommy that he needs to go.
So there could be an update on those things in the future ~ but I am PROUD and HAPPY to say :HOORAY JONATHON!!!!! I LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCH AND AM SO VERY PROUD OF YOU FOR BEING FINISHED WITH POTTY TRAINING! YOU ARE AMAZING AND MY MIRACLE!
I am not sure what happen to my previous post about last day of school.
So I redid it.
Last day of school was Wednesday June 9, 2010. We had a nice time and a great way to end the year.
Jonathon received a few items also.
Pictures with teacher ~ 3 at end are teacher, teachers aide and social worker ~ last picture is gift from Miss Lori(social worker)
We went to our local YMCA last Saturday for a swim evaluation. Jonathon will be starting swimming lessons this week.
We have a class on Saturdays from 11-12p.m. This class will be one on one with an instructor and is mainly playtime.(ASD-Autism Spectrum Disorder) Even though Jonathon does not have ASD he is still able to join this class.
I am waiting for Katie (YMCA) to call me back on what other class Jonathon will be taking.
At our swim evaluation we had the best lifeguard work with us - Miss Maggie from Woodlands - she retired from Woodlands last year and after 24 hours she got a job at the YMCA. And Jonathon loved her!
I am very excited about Jonathon taking swimming lessons~ he really loves the water!
no more sitting on mommy's lap
Jonathon has Roseola! But I have been very lucky this time around. The highest his fever got yesterday was 100.7. His rash was on his inner arms, outer arms and neck and partway down his back.
This morning he has no temp ~ the rash is barely noticeable ~ he is eating and playing again ~ and he is drinking like normal today also. he will remain contagious until the rash is gone.
I asked Dr. Peditrician if this was airborne ~ no ~ he got it from someone coughing near him ~ runny nose near him ~ someone had it and gave it to him.
Now there is this one particular little boy at school that spends more time outside of school being sick than actually being at school. He has taken a liking to Jonathon for some reason. He wants to hold Jonathon's hand all the time. He wants to hug on Jonathon all the time. And I have worried about this much contact. And I don't know if he got it from this particular child, but he has not been anywhere except school. Except for Thursday afternoon, we went to the park and to McDonalds. Soooo not sure where he got it.
And the reason I said "I got lucky this time around" When Kenny was a baby (under 1) he got Roseola. He had a high temp of 104 that we had a hard time getting down. It was very scary and he was very sick. He also burst his eardrum from the fever. We made it through that and he recovered just fine, but I am so glad that I did not have to go through that with Jonathon. I am glad he had a mild case.
We have school on Monday and field trip on Tuesday so I hope he is better by then!
