Mr. Manners

Luke is a very polite boy these days.

Please ("peazzz") follows just about everything he says. I have a feeling he thinks "as long as I say please I will get what I want". Unfortunately that is not the case, but I do appreciate the good manners!

Thank you ("tank u") is also being heard more and more around here. Many times you still have to ask him, "What do you say?" and then he will say it. Other times, he says it with no prompting at all!

Excuse me ("scuse me") is used often and appropriately!

Sorry ("sowwy") is said on his own occassionally. Usually though, we have to ask Luke to apologize if he has done something wrong (ie. hit Nala). He says it very sweetly!

In other Lukey language news, we are beginning to hear some sentences form. For example he will say "I did it." or "I see it." anything along those lines.

He is also using the possessive form quite often. For example when we pull up to the house on our way home during the week, he sees Uncle Will's car and says "Willy's car". He will do the same for other objects like "Daddy's shoes."

He say love you "uv u" to us when we say it to him and always has a cheerful good morning for us "morneen".

We definitely need to watch we say or what we are watching/listening to these days. Luke pretty much repeats the last word or two you say. He is definitely a little mockingbird!

Luke's language has expanded so much - he knows soooo many words. He is a smart little cookie with a cute little voice too :)
