Well Nate is talking alot these days. Both in english and in mandarin, this week he started to say "bang mang" and seems to have forgotten "help", he knows both "airplane" and "feiji" but hasn't gotten the hint of magic word. He still does the sign language for please, so actually he is speaking 3 languages? he does niao niao and pee pee.
He thinks "too much" means too little because when he wants more he says "more" and we say "too much". The other day he said to dehdeh, xiexie (thank you) and was surprised that she knew to say "bu keqi" (welcome). He must be able to distinguish who speaks what language. He likes adding "ah" and "ma" to the back of sentences, it makes him feel like he is speaking mandarin and he does a good, "Aiya"
Ike on the other hand is also talking, he talks when awake, when eating and when sleeping. He makes these small noises like mmmm, nnnh, nnng... it is really hard to sleep next to him with the small noises going on then of course he has the big WAAAAHHH.
Today we went to the flea market at TAS (taipei american school). He saw sasha and she grabbed his hand and they walked down the sidewalk hand in hand (where is my camera when I need it?). Sasha's mom said she is quite bossy but she clearly knows what she wants! After they left, kaikai asked for her several times. I think a lurve story is developing there?
The american school has really lovely facilities, even the kindergarden, huge playground, swimming pool, field, activities... lots of developmental material on the wall but too bad there is no chinese classes involved.
Tonight Nate had sushi and that was an easy dinner to do.
