"Excuse you"

I can't get over how much Landon is talking. I love it because of course, it makes life SO much easier when he can communicate his wants and needs.

The latest in his ever expanding vocabulary is "excuse me". This term applies to any burp, fart, or bodily function that erupts unexpectedly and also to moving past people who may be in his way.

In trying to teach him this, and remind him to use it in these situations, every now and then I would say, "Excuse you Landon". Colin picked up on it and started reminding him every now and then with "Excuse you!".

Landon has now picked up on this and applies, "Excuse you" to the above situations.

He's only a year and a half and he's already blaming his farts on other people.

Nice.

Mike,
It sounds more like "scooz oo" (an of course it's preceded by howling fits of laughter), but it's definitely what he's saying! :)
