Alex's new favorite game is "agua." He brings a container to us -- cup, bowl, baking pan, you name it -- and requests "Agua?" We give him a small amount and he happily passes it back and forth from one container to another. Here is a picture of one special day when he got direct access to the kitchen tap.
It is fun to watch Alex move seemlessly from Spanish to English. "Agua" is his only Spanish word -- "ball", "moon" and "noooooooo" are favorite English ones. He understands and responds to requests in both languages. And he clearly prefers our nanny's latino food over plain-jane American.
