It varies with Mikey. But Saturday, he came in, walked out to the kitchen where Grandpa and I were, and said, "Hello, Grandmother. Hello, Grandfather" before he started wandering off.
And he was responsive to questions - once we got his attention :-).
"Mikey. MIKEY." (Eyes finally on me.) "We are having chicken for dinner. We are baking potatoes. Do you want a sweet potato, or a regular potato?"
"Sweet potato!"
"OK."
Hey, it's a step forward!!
He also was cooperative when he came back from doing chores with Grandpa and David and I were still using the computer to complete math. He asked for the computer and I said, "10 minutes."
(David protested, "10 MORE minutes??" I said, "Probably not but I want to set expectations for Mikey.")
So he went away and came back when we told him it was OK, without any protest. I love the good days.
