I think this was his first full grammatically correct sentence.
(The last few days I've been bringing him to our bed when he wakes up in the morning. Unlike before when he would be ready to get up and start running, now he actually lays still, drinks his meme, cuddles or plays with Medic while laying/sitting between us in bed. I remember I used to do the same thing. I guess I was a bit older, since I remember it. I would get up and go to my parents' bed and sit and play in the bed while they were still sleeping.)
Today when he woke up cranky from his nap, he told me all concerned "mokra kosa." His room was hot so he was sweaty and his hair was wet.
He watched me put his laundry away. "Daycare bed," he said as I folded his daycare sheets.
All in all, he's becoming a little chatter box. I was surprised how verbal and chatty he was when he woke up from the nap today.
Other new phrases he picked up recently from daycare include, "Okeey, mama, okeey dadda? Okeey? Okeey?" He keeps saying OK to us and while he pretends play with his animals. I don't think he's really mastered the meaning of OK and the inflection with which he says it is weird. He says it the way I picture a 4-year old girl saying it. In other words, he picked up this phrase from someone in daycare.
Along the same lines, at dinner the other day he asked Andy very seriously "how's your food?" I was floored. We don't really use that phrase regularly. It must be small talke that Ms. Yvonne conducts with them during lunch at daycare.
His bossiness has also increased. "Come mama, come dadda," have really become imperatives not invitations, especially when he grabs us by the hand and leads us to whereever we need to be directed to go."Look, look," is another favorite, as is "rade," the all encompassing Croatian verb for any sort of construction site or equipment.
