Speaking in sentences...

JW is speaking in sentences!

The first ones - "I want milk" and "Mummy, spin the puzzle" both to Mrs Kong.

Slightly scary how quickly his vocabulary is developing. He tries to repeat everything anyone that's within earshot says, so we have to be extra careful what we say.

Also, Mr Kong got a big "GOOD MORNING PAPA!" (1st time JW has said that) before work yesterday. What a nice gift to end the week and begin the CNY celebrations.

Looking forward to the Year of the Tiger. Roar!

Quick update - 4 and almost 5 syllables...

Mr & Mrs Kong have really been crazy busy these past few weeks so just a quick update on JW's progress:

He is saying words of up to 4 syllables now and almost 5! Won't be long before we're stringing sentences together. He is copying everything that everyone says and babbles non-stop sometimes. Definitely the most talkative one in the house!

Selection of what JW is now saying:
- Tissue paper (1st 4 syllable word! At least the first that Mr Kong heard)
- Strawberry
- Broccoli
- Elmo's song (while pointing at the computer - his current favorite on Youtube)
- Hot-hot (followed by blowing sound - 'phssshh')
- Bubbles! (during bath time)
- Camel
- Walk-walk or Car-car or Kai-kai (when going out)
- School bus
- Abacus

Still favourite words:
- Water bottle
- Buddha (or Buddha-buddha-buddha-buddha...)
- Milk
- Book
- Lorry or truck

His vocabulary is growing by the day. Mr & Mrs Kong are very happy and amused sometimes but also a little afraid of what words might come out of the little fella...
