She Makes Me Laugh

Madelyn has been developing her sense of humor, and with it her desire to make people laugh.  What she has been doing most recently is telling knock knock jokes.  I am really not sure where she discovered them, but she thinks that she is hilarious. 

She says "knock knock" and then we say "who's there" and then she laughs and either says "knock knock" again, or she decides that someone is at the door.  Most frequently if someone is there, it is Grandpa.  And she thinks it is the funniest thing ever.  She laughs, and we laugh, and then she laughs even harder.  A few nights ago in the car she was laughing so hard at her knock knock jokes she started snorting.  She clearly thinks she is telling a joke, although I think she may have missed the main general purpose of a knock knock joke...

She has also been pretending to talk on the phone a lot, whether with an actual cell phone, or a play phone, or most recently anything she can find.  She recently took her shoe off of her foot, held it up to her ear, and said "Hello!"  followed by "Bye!"  Maybe you had to be there, but we thought it was pretty hilarious.

This is hilarious. I think she has some of her Great-PopPop Reinhardt in her! It has to be genetic.
