My, But He's Polite...

Joey is doing remarkably well on the communication front. He's got 4 or 5 signs (they're all animals, but hey, you have to start somewhere) and he's saying more and more words. At this point he says, "All gone" (in the most guttural voice you've ever heard; from a 15-month-old it can be... disconcerting, shall we say), "car", "uh-oh", and -- most impressively -- "thank you".

Even cooler than that, he says it unprompted when you give him things. We haven't even been trying. That's how good our parenting is; it's like some kind of courtesy osmosis.

If only we'd known that we could do it this easily when we had Sam!
