Well, Luke certainly figured out the story with Mom's Huffy Puffy train. All of a sudden this evening, he was determined to put in some quality time with the "choo choo." Mom or Dad pushing the train - especially into him - is just flat out hilarious. Sure, he's covered in daycare toddler crud and parts of his dinner, but I couldn't resist.
The discerning ears can make out his new buzzword, "Peeeese?" as he asks Dad to run into his foot with the train some more. (he also has "thank you" down, but that still requires s little prompting) Once he discovered a well placed "peeeese?" with the head tilt gets him cookies and toys and bubbles and Cookie Monster, he upgraded it in his vocabulary toot sweet. Just ask Aunt Tanya. (don't get him starrrrrted on Cookie Monster - so popular that all TV programming and the TV itself are "Cookie." Elmo, on the other hand, is a nameless monkey, prompting his "Ooo Ooo Ooo" monkey call)

The Obvious Child
We went to Scranton this past weekend to visit Luke's Grandma & Grandpa Casey. I'll let Paul cover the rest of the trip, but suffice it to say that Luke really enjoyed Grandpa's pancakes....
Really, really, REALLY enjoyed them
And then he had to dance about it!

The Best Thing about Jersey City
A few weekends ago, we took Luke to Liberty State Park - Jersey City's best kept secret! It has an amazing playground, and a lovely walkway where you are "within swimming distance" of both Liberty and Ellis Islands (so says Paul).
We had a lovely picnic
And we posed with the sights
Overall, however, Luke wasn't too impressed with the statue or the view
But holy crap, the playground was fun (and huge!)
And watching this guy...paraglide?... and all of the kites being flown was fun
Sitting on the ground is fun. Making Mom sit with you: funner
Hydrating is the most fun of all!
He Likes Neeeeeeectarrrrrreeeeeeeens
I know a baby
He likes to eat
He chomps all morning
When he sits in his seat
He don't eat chicken
Or most cheese
he don't eat peanut butter, or any of these....
(The Caseys, Conerys, and Casey Conerys among you may recognize those PJs - he's the 4th little boy to wear them - including Daddy!)

Going to the Zoo, Zoo, Zoo
This summer, Luke had a good time getting to know zoos. Mom & Dad took him to the Turtle Back Zoo two times, and Mom and Auntie Lisa took him to the Central Park Zoo.
Sometimes, driving Luke places is like having our own little Secret Service Agent in the back of the car
When we got to Turtle Back on our first visit, we got right in line for a train ride
Luke had a pretty good time on the train, though he was mostly in shock with excitement
We also rode on the carousel - he's riding on a polar bear here. GO U BEARS!
The second time we visited, he rode with Daddy - on a lemur.
He also climbed on a "quack quack" in the playground
And checked out their 2 penguins
When Mom & Auntie Lisa took him to the Central Park Zoo, we all made a bee line for the polar bear exhibit
But mostly Luke was excited about going "glug glug" at the water fountain
And here, Luke is trying to charm the man sitting behind him, who had a cell phone that looked a lot like Daddy's. The man thought he was being friendly, but really, he wanted at the "mo"
Celebrity Impersonations Part XIII
Those silly party favor glasses from Ronan's party continue to deliver blog fodder. Who knew one impromptu photo shoot could yield so much?
Here, Luke goes Looney Toons and does his best Egghead Jr. Or perhaps his best Chicken Little?
You be the judge.

Obviously Gifted
After weeks of Mom & Dad being taunted by his artwork being displayed on the bulletin board at "school," Luke got to bring his first artwork home last week. September's color of the month was red, and so....
That's not an eyebrow, that's a stem.
