Como te llamas?

A couple weeks ago we taught Max to answer the questions ´´como te llamas´´ and ´´Que es tu nombre?´´ and he got so that when he wasn´t being shy and he was asked by a stranger he would answer the question without any prompting from us ´´Macsh´´ (that´s how he says it) He still does pretty well but a week ago when we introduced ´´Quantos años tienes?´´  He started to confuse the which questions to answer with ´´dos´´ and which with ´´Max´´.

Anyway, so this morning he was playing with a little boy of 6 or 7 and I told him to ask the boy ´´Como te llamas?´´  And he did, and the boy answered ´´Bello´´ Max was so excited at his new conversation skills that he ran inside and asked us each ´´Como to llamas?´´  To which I replied ´´´Mommy´´ and Ivan replied ´´Daddy´´ and he went back and forth asking us about a dozen times and then he ran outside and very seriously, and intently asked his new friend ´´Como te llamas?´´ about 20 more times.  And the sweet boy just smiled and answered ´´Bello´´ each time he asked.  I thought it was pretty darn cute. :)
