Time really does fly. When you have a toddler there is no such thing as boring anymore. I realized I had been super lazy about updating Nia's "dictionary" and when I sat down today to do it, I realized that for the most part there's not much she doesn't say now so it would be a pretty long list. She teeters on the cusp of understanding everything, and being able to express it. She seems to comprehend most of the stuff we ask or say if we use short sentences. And even more surprising is the initiative she takes. She's starting to clean up after herself and put things in the garbage when she's done with it. She's singing and dancing, playing jokes on people (she'll take something, delicately hide it, then turn around and if you ask her where it is she goes "I don't know"), and in general just being entertaining. She repeats everything now including accidental bad words so we're having to be extra careful what we say.
We've started putting her hair in little pony tails, and it suits her quite nicely as her hair is getting really long and curly. She loves getting dressed and today even demanded we accessorize her with a knitted scarf she saw hanging (see bottom left picture). She will bring us shoes and socks from her room in the morning, most of the time they are two of a kind.
