I totally see the value in being bilingual! I wish I spoke 10 languages,
that would be awesome.

You are missing my point. He is FOUR. Shouldn't he learn English first?

Instead of teaching him two new Spanish words per day, I would rather 'they'

Actually there have been many many studies that show that teaching a
second language is most effectively done when started at the
pre-school age, without detriment or delay in learning the primary
language. Personal observations of bilingual people in my own family
(unfortunately I'm not one of them) certainly bear that out.
