Lyla likes cookies.
A lot.
The baby sign for please involves lightly raking your fingers in that spot on your torso just below your shoulder. It should look like you're scratching a mosquito bite.
Lyla's sign for please has evolved or, depending on your perspective, devolved. Now she places both hands above her stomach and frantically shakes her entire body back and forth. The shaking breaks up the word please into several distinct syllables so it sounds like "Pee-ee-ee-ee-ee-eeze!" Watching her, you can't help but think of a young Santa Claus.
And like Santa, much of the time she wants cookies.
