Thanks everyone for the warm welcomes! Sorry for my delay in response, busy busy times as it is right now! With work, his birthday just passing, and mine around the corner, we've both been pretty occupied!
On my way to and from work, I have been listening to recordings from the Pimsler Norwegian lessons, and I have found them to be very helpful. The teaching method used makes it very easy to pick up on learning different words and phrases, I'm only on lesson four of maybe 50 half hour lessons - a good recommendation for anyone wanting to learn on their own.
