Night-time, after Elliot’s daily bath. Karolina asked Elliot if he wanted milkee? Elliot replied “milk“. It’s the first time he’s said that.
Max is in Aspen once again.
I’ve heard him say, or try to say a lot of new words in the last few days.
- Egg (or close to it) while pointing at an egg being eaten by a snake in his book
- He now says mou for mouse all the time. We found a dead mouse in the yard, probably put there by Grendel, and he was fascinated by it. Kept pointing at it, getting closer, and saying “mou! mou!” He would have touched it if I’d let him. There’s also a mouse in his snake book that he points to a lot and says mou.
- Cro for croc (the crocodiles on his walker)
These are older:
- Fr for frog — remember the “frog” in the horse’s feet at Stockton’s Plum Creek Stables?
- Choo choo
- Tr for truck, ca for car, pl for plane.
