I'm seeing lots of little connections being made and light-bulbs go off in Sidney's head over the past few days. He is connecting many more "things" with words, and he is thrilled! Really giddy with excitement...Tonight we were reading Creature ABC and we were going through all of the animals. When it comes to trying new words Sidney is about as timid as they come. He HATES not saying a word perfectly. If you try to help him pronounce a long word by walking through it with him, he gets all "listless, small and soft" and responds with a random whisper... (it's very cute)
However, tonight he was letting me help him with pronunciation, and was trying to say new things. Eventually he even started prompting me to help him. "Por cu pine."
His favorite page tonight was one he already knew; "Lion!" he would yell. He would then change the page, only to change it back and scream "Lion!" again in an even more surprised tone.
