Please and thank you

Lately, Acadia has been a total sponge. She is repeating words left and right and actually remembering them, which is so much fun. Every time she says a new word, we make her say it a few times in a row to make sure she's actually saying it and it's not our imagination!

Tonight, I have her book she wanted and she said tank too. So, of course I had to get the camera and see if she really did say thank you, which she did! I know she doesn't understand the concept of please and thank you yet, but I do think it's important that she's learning them. I feel badly, though, because if you notice, she says please when I ask her to, but I didn't hear her until I was downloading this video. Oops. Way to go, mom! BTW - for some reason, her new favorite toy is a diaper! WTH?

Also, she's reading 8 Silly Monkeys and whenever I read, "Momma called the Dr. and the Dr. said - No more monkeys jumping on the bed!" I shake my finger, and tonight I caught her babbling over the book and shaking her finger.
