Connor can talk just a bit more now and communicates what he needs to us better.  Like tonight after bath, he requested “Momma reads me, not daddy!”.  In the morning, he asked me for a specific TV show “Yardigan (his way of saying Backyardigans), the choo-choo one”.  Some words he just has troubles with, like “muf-gin” for muffins, “eppington” for elephants and we are not quite sure what sound he makes for his own name.  Another one is Christmas lights which he says “am-mee lights”.  Logan would ask us jokingly what “am-mee light” is or teases Connor that he is not saying it correctly.  Connor often gets offended and says “NO, not am-mee lights!  Am-mee lights!”.  He tries to correct Logan but they both still sound the same to us.  Poor guy!

    The past couple of nights, when Connor and I were reading a Dr. Seuss book and saw a page with lots of letters, he started pointing to the letters and called out some random letters.  So, I pointed each letter out and he repeated them beautifully with good pronunciation.  His counting is getting better too.  When I wash the kids’ hair, I often have Logan count each of the water bucket that I pour over his head.  This week, Connor starts to count along with us, and he can count all the way to 10 one night.  The other night he even mumbled all the way to 14.  Last week at school, his Spanish teacher was so excited to bring over a Number flip book for Connor to read, and he did it all to the way to 10 in Spanish with just one reminder at 7.
