hich could technically count as either a 4 or 5 syllable word, depending on how you pronounce it, both ways being acceptable) and "hippopotamus". If you can think of any other 5+ syllable words that he would know, please leave me a comment. I did google "5 syllable words" but only found one that he might know: Snuffleupagus.Tyler got his school pictures back the other day. I was surprised at how nice they turned out. Even the "Chandler" smile isn't as bad as I'd feared. Doesn't he look grown up?!! I volunteered to help tie-dye t-shirts in his class tomorrow. Should be fun. Danielle has her first field trip next week, and I'm going on that, too. I know they won't want me around all the time, but I'm enjoying being a part of these things now.

My minds getting more muddled as the weeks go by, but a word I was fascinated with when I as about Tyler's age was Mediterranean - my dad got into some sort of bet with a friend that I could or couldn't spell it, so he taught me (he did get me to understand it was a sea, but I was pretty clueless otherwise!) Unfortunately, I could spell it just because I memorized it, not because I was a good speller...hey unfortunately has 5 syllables!
Can't think of more than 4 syllables right now--Mississippi. A fun word to spell. Where's Tyler? That kid in the picture looks entirely too old and serious. Nice smile.
I thought of some other words he'll probably be familiar with:
accidentally
elementary
cafeteria
My brother always likes the word:
antidisestablishmentarianism
when he has to come up with something ridiculously long.
Hmm, well ridiculously has 5 syllables too!
