Questions

Daniel has started stringing words together and repeating commonly spoken phrases.  The ones getting the most air time are:
  • who-er-u?! This phrase is the result of a game where Daddy (or Mommy) says "I'm Daddy (Mommy).  Who are you?"  Last night, he also started answering the question with "Dan-el".
  • what-r-doing? When Daniel's out of the room, he's often asked "Daniel, what are you doing?"  He doesn't just repeat this question but seems to ask when he is genuinely curious about what you are doing.
  • Bob...Builder Just one example of combining words.  He was very pleased with this phrase when I heard it for the first time last night.
We've been talking about 'please' too.  When we're sitting in his room before bed and he asks for milk, I ask that he say "Milk, please."  Sometimes he does, others he signs 'please', still others he balks and refuses to say/sign but will acknowledge my request with a "yeah".
