While in Russia, Sasha picked up a whole bunch of new words, and now he also uses three-syllable words, which he couldn't do bef...

Raising a multilingual child. Sashas Word Counter - Russian. Sashas Word Counter - English. Tuesday, September 25, 2012. It's been a long time! Our efforts to keep TV time to a minimum continue.
