Today I heard my two year old count from one to ten in English, and then coolly follow it up with uno to diez in Spanish. When did he learn to do that that I hadn't noticed?

His normal favourite phrases at the moment are "naughty daddy", which is the standard reaction to having his nappy changed, being put in his bed, not being allowed to watch another Thomas the Tank film; and "pash a tone" (splash a stone) which is one of his favourite pastimes anywhere where water and stones might potentially be found in the same vicinity. I did have to get a bit firm on the subject of bombarding the goldfish in the garden centre the other day.
