After getting frustrated all these months because Swe-cha does not seem to want to learn, he is suddenly opening up these books that he has not been interested in before and he's pointing to pictures and wants me to identify them.
He still has his own agenda so I just follow his lead.
Lately, his favorites are:
Shapes - specifically, rectangle ("aaaangllle") and square ("aaaare")
Jungle book - specifically, the hippo ("ip") which is really manatee but I misidentified it so we're just sticking to the hippo for now and it does look like one and the frog ("oooggg").
I've noticed that when he gets to the pages with these pictures, he will point to the pictures, look at me and enunciate the words. He will take 2 or even 3 seconds to say the 1 syllables.
While watching Sesame Street episodes, we've noticed that he likes certain segments. His current favorite is Ernie & Bert's Here's Fishy Fishy segment from around Season 12 or 13. He would even say "heeeeereee" along with Ernie / Bert when they call out to the fish.

Food-wise, he's also been eager to try out whatever it is that Mommy is eating. Lately, he tried cookies, ice cream, popcorn, fried rice, rice and a burger (which he did not like). He eats a little at a time, except for the cookie which he finished, but I'm so proud and happy anyway :)
