Food and Books are just a few of my favorite things!

Wow everyday Duke surpises us with something new, wether it is a new word, action or emotion.  Today his vacab is expanding - the two that has shocked mom is when he would say Thank You and repeated mom when she said Old Towel.  He still loves to say clock, burb, Jet and book.  Today Duke is getting smart and starting to climb to get the things he wants, and to be a little dare devil as Patty calls it at Day Care.
Favorite foods - hot dogs, chicken nuggest, corn, peas, cheese, bread, strawberries, grapes, and veggie sticks.  Favorite toy - any book, airplane and helicopter.
Dukes favorte thing to do at night is sit on a lap and have a book be read to him, doesn't matter who it is as long as he has a lap he can climb into and you will read he will be one happy boy.

Take a look at all the fun we had the last couple weeks!

Typical night playing in his house with his tools.
