He Likes Trucks

Owen's vocabulary and command of the language is relatively impressive for a 22-month old. Of particular note is his growing truck vocabulary. He can properly identify and name the following trucks:
  • Pick-up truck
  • Big rig
  • Fire truck/Fire engine
  • Mail truck
  • Ambulance
  • Crane
  • Tractor
  • Container truck
  • Cement mixer
  • Digger
  • Backhoe
  • Bulldozer
  • Dump truck
  • Garbage truck
  • Monster truck
  • Jeep
  • Grandpa (That's what he says when he sees an RV)
  • Combine harvester

Just kidding on the combine harvester. Although that does showcase MY expanded truck/tractor vocabulary! Actually, if he sees a combine harvester he calls it "Frank." Which is the name of the harvester in the movie Cars (you know, the tractor tipping scene...) I'm sure I'm forgetting a handful of others that he knows but that's a good sample what comes to mind. What can I say? He likes trucks!
