Schlooping

When Arthur was done with his ice cream cake he picked up his plate and looked at us for nonverbal approval to lick up the melted ice cream from his plate. Nearly in unison we said " no Arthur - put the plate down."

He proceeded to explain "I want to schloop it up" and then made a schlooping noise with his mouth. To demonstrate to us that he wanted to slurp up the melted ice cream from the plate. 

We were laughing too hard to stop him. Instead, we took pictures and then very seriously told him his manners were abhorrent.
