Ethan has been having a little trouble pronouncing his consonant sounds, since we are on the road this year I have dubbed myself his speech therapist.
The other day we were practicing the "S" sound and he got it for the first time. So all day we practiced saying words that start with "s." He did well when he said a word by itself, but reverted back to his old ways when using it in a sentence. That night he was showing off his new "s" skills for Clark, and this was the conversation:
Clark: Ethan can you say, "we drink soda?"
Ethan: We drink foda.
Clark: No, we drink soda.
Ethan: We drink foda.
Clark: Try again, we drink soda.
Ethan: We drink water!
Done and done. Smecher.

That's funny! Keep practicing with just the words. I have made flashcards by looking through magazines with Kate and picking out pictures with sounds she needs to work on. Then we'll go through the flashcards or pick a few and make up a story. S is taking a long time for us so don't worry!
