Adjective or Verb + Noun

Ivan's incremental yet daily obvious verbal progress continues.

"Poppy diapers," was the first thing he said when I went to get him this morning. That was new. Until now, he'd just say "poppy."

"Kupit cracker," he said after he finished eating his cracker in the car on the way home from daycare. It used to be just "kupit," as the omnipotent answer to anything I'd say was done, broken, missing or gone out of site. On Monday, after Baka left, he even said "kupit Baka," as a way of bringing Baka back to the house.

"Kupit yogurt," has been his favorite phrase for about a week now. I'm not sure whether he's really fixated on eating yogurt or whether he's been repeating that phrase becase he knows it.

But combining an adjective or a verb with a noun is definitely new.

The speed with which he's been acquiring language, really languages, is really amazing. Every morning he wakes up or every time he wakes up from a nap new words and concepts come out. I wish I could record it all.
