Jonah arrived this morning excited about going swimming (which, sadly, won't happen for three days). He polished off a pancake and helped Grandma watch JJ. This involved lots of sliding, swinging and bubble blowing. Uncle David helped Jonah swing the highest and fastest he has ever gone. I could see his face and hear a delighted little giggle. He was totally into it. We also went downstairs to make sure the bunk beds were ready to go. Jonah explained that he wanted the bottom bunk so that he wouldn't fall.
After we picked Thomas up from school we had snacks (big snacks) and spent time outside swinging (Tommy is going to have huge, muscly arms if pushes Jonah that much every day) and inside doing homework. The boys also met and played with new friends in our neighborhood.
We had dinner and then went to the store to get groceries and trail snacks and treats for our little adventure this week.
Thomas read us "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" and Grandma read "Naughty Monkeys." Then the boys headed to bed. Thomas had been wanting to go to bed since about dinner time- he was sure he was totally worn out. But then when he climbed up onto the top bunk and Jonah climbed onto the bottom it was so exciting that both boys were suddenly wide-eyed and awake. We realized that the bottom bunk was a little like a cave-perfect for Jonah's bear, "Teddy," and that the top bunk was perfect for Tommy's cat, "Sammy," because cats like to be up high.
Here is a picture of Jonah with his new friend.

Those are some GREAT bunk beds...
Big bunk beds. I'd worry about falling too. We got a bunk bed for our boys, and now I'm kind of nervous about it... But Javi has only fallen out of bed two or three times in the last month, which is really his first experience with sleeping in a big boy bed.
Sounds like Jonah had a great day! Wish we were there to swing and play.
