Latest on language acquisition: Daniil has created a joke Russian pet name for me: Ma-ma-ma-myashka. I joke back: Da-na-na-nyashka. Today we were going back and forth like this when Daniil paused and gazed upward, clearly thinking, and came out with: "Ma-ma-ma-pancake!"
Daniil is also keen on punctuating observations with an exaggerated "Wow" as in, as we are driving down Route 28: "Another dump truck! Wow."
After peeing this afternoon, while reaching to flush the toilet, Danill spontaneously said: "Goodbye, yellow pee." Finally, he's got yellow down pat.
And this morning upon waking and opening his eyes, Daniil turned to me with a big smile and said with gusto and nearly perfect enunciation: "Good morning, Mama." We haven't even worked on this salutation. English is simply seeping in.
