Isaac is counting!  (Or, at least, he's reciting the names of numbers in order, up to ten.)  We're surprised and not sure how he learned this.  (Daddy is really happy and proud.)

Isaac uses the word 'money' to refer to coins.  He also uses the word 'pram'.

Today Isaac pointed to a pear in a book, said 'pear', then pushed the tip of his finger between Daddy's lips and said 'pear' again.  Daddy had just eaten a pear, so Isaac was pointing to the second pear, inside Daddy.
