Hermie

I bought this spoon because it is supposed to keep food on it easier. I am not actually sure that it does, but a Lukey story came out of it.

We have a green and yellow one. It looks just like the picture to the left, but it is green where this one is blue. I am sure you can imagine it. Anyway, Luke picked it up this week and said, "Hermie?". David and I cracked up...Hermie is his new word this week. He LOVES Hermie the caterpillar from the book series by Max Lucado. I can completely see why he thinks it looks like Hermie...what do you think?

mmmm-aa

Luke is so funny lately...well, most of the time he's funny...but just recently he's started 'virtually' kissing things he loves. Most of the time he just says, 'mmm-aa', but there are times he throws in an occasional hand to blow the kisses.
Story:
Setting: stuck in traffic near the airport
Luke says his version of airplane with a point and a 'uuu?' then proceeds to say, 'mmm-aa' (which is a kiss).

Story:
Setting: Cheddars for lunch
Luke sees the revolving fans on the ceiling, points, gives a 'uuu?', then a 'mmm-aa'.

Story:
Setting: on a walk in the neighborhood...on the way home...mom stops to get Luke out of the stroller to 'experience nature'.
Mom points out a caterpillar. Luke says, 'uuu? Hermie?' (from his book) then ...you guessed it.... 'mmm-aa'.

And, finally....the kicker...
Setting: in the front yard getting the mail
A trash truck drives by...Luke points, gives a 'uuu? Kluga-vroom-vroom (Luke talk for car)', and then...yup...'mmm-aa'. Mom said, 'yuk-aa'!
