"Shhhh...I am concentrating." This is Jonathan's new saying. He will close his eyes, talk to himself and sometimes be drawing something on his hand. If you say anything he will say "Shhh, I am concentrating."

Love Me Some Ice Cream
Tonight we went to Hogs Breath, restaurant owned by Clint Eastwood, for dinner. Diana slept, still not adjusted to the time change, and Jonathan was a little difficult at first as he was tired but quickly recovered and thoroughly enjoyed his chocolate ice cream.
By the way, it was Daddy, not me, who taught him how to "drink" the last bit of his ice cream....I know, it doesn't sound like Brad, but trust me, it was!
Tennis Anyone?
Today we went to Fritz park, where we played tennis for awhile and then Jonathan got to play at a park. Jonathan did really good playing tennis and was improving with every ball Nana fed to him. On the park Jonathan enjoyed climbing on the rope spider web, doing a scavenger hunt and playing with some new little friends.
This afternoon we finally took Jonathan to the pool...this may be where we are for the rest of the week. He is a little fish and loves to swim. He was jumping right in, going under water and swimming very well.
The Living Desert
We went to the Palm Springs zoo today, the Living Desert. It was a gorgeous sunny day and a perfect day to spend at the zoo. Some of the highlights were the baby giraffe, the merry-go-round, and the petting zoo. We had to go back to the petting zoo twice, so Jonathan could brush the goats with two different types of hand brushes. The kids rode in a safari wagon and I think Diana thought she was a big girl. She kept trying to reach for Jonathan's goldfish.
Jonathan's other highlight while we have been here is riding around in the golf cart. Today we took a ride out to the PGA West clubhouse where they are setting up for a big tournament. Jonathan thought it was fun to ride on the street in a golf cart and to see all the tents.
Sequence for kids is his favorite board game these days, ever since he got it for Christmas from Nana and Grandpa Gordy, and we have been playing it a lot. Jonathan and grandpa Gordy are normally on a team against Nana and me. Tonight after we got done playing, he said..."I love vacation! I think we should stay on vacation for 40 or maybe 80 nights?"
Diana has been a trooper and is loving the attention from Nana, Grandpa Gordy and her big brother. She is still a little messed up with the time change and with the combination of fighting her naps, she is, or I should say was, a little tired. Last night I thought she was taking a "cat nap" like she does sometimes around 4:30, but she never woke up again until 1:30 am. I am glad she slept so good but the bad news for her is that I know she can go about 12 hours without eating now.

Pictures from the Plane
Jonathan got to see mountains and the grand canyon for the first time on our flight to Palm Springs. These pictures don't do it justice...it was beautiful!
