Small, but significant, accomplishments

In the past day I have noticed that Caleb is doing two new things:

- Responding with "sí" instead of "yes" when I or someone else asks him something in Spanish.
- Beginning to speak in complete sentences some of the time!

Last night he was sitting under the kitchen counter and asked me "How do I say 'green' in Spanish?", and after I told him, he pointed to each of the brooms in front of him and said, "Este es verde (this is green), este es gris (this is gray), este es azul,"  then continued pointing to everything around him saying "este ____" for each color.

Then this afternoon we were playing outside in the backyard, and Gloria and Laura were with us, too.  Caleb carried a toy of Laura's over to Gloria and asked, "Este es para la arena?" (Is this for the sand?)  I about fell over!  One of his first sentences in Spanish was five words, put correctly together!   Yay for Caleb's brain!!


A few others he has used this week:
- Vamos al jardin (see the post and video from today about this one)
- Vamos al baño
- Vamos a Pipo

Laura LOVES our stroller!  She sat in here without getting up for a solid 45 minutes!!
