Jonah now responds to the question, "Where is the bear's nose?" He touches his teddybear's nose. We discovered this Sunday. He will do this with a stuffed dog too. Tim has been teaching Jonah the names of a select few body parts. Responding to a question like this is a huge step for Jonah. He has looked at a bear before when asked where the bear is. Same with the cats. This is the first time he has touched the thing he was asked about. Exciting, to say the least.
Jonah is also getting quite tricky. He knows he is supposed to stay away from the cats' water bowl, but sometimes the temptation is just too much. The other day he dropped his toy right next to the water bowl and pretended he crawled there to pick it up while instead he wanted to stick his hand in the water. I watched him perform this elaborate scheme and just when he was about to touch the water, I said a big loud "No!" That startled him, but didn't stop him from trying the same trick a couple more times. Cheeky, cheeky monkey.
