Ben is beginning to put words together. We had the following conversation Sunday afternoon. We were looking at a picture of a baby on a diaper box.
Me: Look Ben, there's a baby.
Ben: Noisy.
Me: Was Aubrey noisy?
Ben: Cara.
Me: We did visit Aubrey and Cara.
Ben: Aubrey baby.
Ben has a super memory. He has favorite words from most of his books. From Brown Bear, he can name most of the animals. In the Poky Little Puppy Counting Book, he points out many of the things Poky counts, including 'shrooms (mushrooms), apples, and ants. His favorite part, though, is when Poky "dig, dig, digs" under the fence.
He says, "Baa, baa black sheep." Then I follow "Have you any wool?" He answers, "Yes sir, full."
He can identify a handful of letters and repeats parts of the alphabet in the correct order.
BUT, he REFUSES to acknowledge that a dog says, "woof, woof" or any other doglike sounds. If I say, a dog says "woof, woof" he'll look at me and say, "Dog says meow, meow" everytime.
