hanging out before school

oskar's vocab

so he officially speaks in sentences - 7 words sometimes, but mostly only 5.

gla gla has become bike and motorcycle - which has since become mocomo. i prefer the mocomo, however do miss the glagla.

googaloo (airplane) is still googaloo, however he does say jumbo jet, jet and single engine aircraft. he has subverted aviela's well-pronounced airplane into googaloo.

diggi's and dumpers are the favourite outdoor play - find him a mound of dirt and give him a diggi (he has a dump truck and backhoe) and he is content for hours.

macadamia is the most syllables, although he prefers to eat boconcini.

definitely has a vocab of over 50 words - many of which are the proper names for construction vehicles. yes, he can tell the difference between a roller and a frontend loader, a forklift and a crane.

we asked him recently "what does a cow say?". he answered "moo". "a dog?" "woof". "a cat?" "meow". "what does oskar say?" to which he answered "talk".

hello

alex offers a kiss and a few words of encouragement to help this one out
