New words

In the past couple of weeks, Eventide has grown up a lot! Not physically (though she might have), but intellectually. She seems to understand a lot more. We watched Tangled last night, and I've never heard her laugh so much when watching a movie (I can recall maybe 2 or 3 times total that she's laughed at a movie). She was cracking up! she especially loved the chameleon and when people got hit with pans...haha. She laughed and smiled at the funny stuff and would look concerned and say "uh-oh" when something bad was happening. In any case, she's learned a lot of new words as well. She's started repeating words after we say them to her and they are gradually becoming part of her regular vocabulary. Some of the one's she has learned:
*Barbie ("bobbie")
*Come on (Gom-on)
*Here you go
*baby (though she doesn't quite get that there will be one in our home soon...)
*Courtney (I swear the other day she told me "thanks, Courtney.")
*Nom Nom! (we did not teach her that!)
*fish
*doggie ("goggie")
*Moo!
*push
*She understands hug, kiss, and treat
*mommy (a name in which she calls both Mitch and I)
*poop ("puh"-she says this while grabbing her diaper after she has peed or pooped)

Among many other words she says and understands, there's a whole bunch of words she says a lot that we don't understand. I LOVE hearing her chat away or read a book. She is just wonderful!

(Also, as a side note, she is AWESOME at going to bed at her bedtime and going down for a nap and is more often than not, quite willing to go to bed! Just in time for the baby! :D )

I just can not get enough of our little Eventide!


Her hair is in her face A LOT and Mitchell's dad often jokingly threatens to cut her hair in the front. Eventide is so determined to pull out any clips, bows, or pony-tails that I put in her hair. *shrug*
