Connor’s talking seems to be advancing slower compared to Logan did at his age, but he is doing a lot of practicing.  He is up to 3 words; some examples are “let me see” or “no, mommy reads!” when I ask him to read on his own, etc.  When we read to him, he will try to read along by making lot of noises throughout the entire book.  Tonight when we were reading “Elmo Loves You”, every time when I read “Elmo loves YOU”, he adds “and Momma, and Daddy, and “Goh Goh” (brother).  While I am singing lullabies to him, he does the same by singing along and humming noises.  I mess around with him sometimes by singing some Chinese ones, and he still keeps humming along.  For a long time, when Connor tried to copy certain words the sounds he made were completely different, which was funny to hear.  Now he finally gets better in copying what we ask him to repeat.  I have been trying to have him practice saying grandpa and grandma in Chinese before we see them, and his pronunciation for grandpa is still a bit off but sort of cute.

    Both Logan and Connor happen to really enjoy watching a TV cartoon called Backyardians lately.  Every morning, Connor asks to watch “Yardians, Yardians” when we come out to the family room.  Connor likes to dance to the theme song and Logan tries to sing along with it too.  Here is a video of Connor dancing this morning, and you may hear Logan attempting some of the lyrics in the background
