The Cantonese Experiment Continues

I think Beck and Maile are both starting to pick up the language, a little bit. Maile yesterday just said "jo sun" to mean (good morning), her first Cantonese words. It's still really (really really) hard to continue to speak Cantonese to them all the time, but I probably end up doing it maybe 70% of the time (at least to Beck). I figure as long as they grow up understanding basic vocab, I'd be super happy. I have a feeling I'll have a much better shot with our third one!

Beck's pretty funny tho, he'll mix up mandarin and cantonese for "hold me" - bao-bao and po-po. He just said bao-po to me today - halfway there! And he's having a crazy time saying thank you, "mm-goi". It always just comes out like "ha-gwai..."! I'm pretty sure I'm confusing the crap out of both of them (not to mention myself) as I speak cantonese then mandarin then english.

Ah, kids are awesome aren't they?

Oh and completely unrelated, when he blows bubbles into his water through a straw at restaurants (like we all did when we were kids...), he always has to put his fingers to his cheeks. Hee hee!
