We have the "everything is a game" phase, which means everything I tell her to do she does the opposite because it is funny, and it's a game.
The "play with our food" phase, which is why she is no longer allowed to manually use a fork, spoon, or have a plate or bowl in front of her. It all gets dumped out, thrown on the floor, or spit back out of her mouth, to be reexamined, and then put back in to eat.
The cute "No" phase. She has her 'yes' and 'no' mixed up so everything comes out as a "No!", with her head shaking back and forth very happily and emphatically.
The "steal everything from my sister" phase, which results in lots of yelling from Sydaleigh, and lots of whining from Marvelly when Sydaleigh takes it back. (and then proceeds to push her for extra emphasis)
The "read me only half a book" phase. She is super into reading, but only half a book at a time. We'll read half, she'll stand up, I'll put the book down, she'll pick the same book back up, sit back down, and want me to re-read her the same half the book, every twenty seconds or so.
The "put everything in my mouth" phase, because dirt and rocks and mud are apparently the new candy, cookies, and chocolate.
The "climb on everything" phase. And by everything I mean everything-chairs, slides, boxes, stools, tables..the higher the better to ensure that she gives me a heart attack no less than a dozen times a day. She keeps going back because I tell her "No", which means "yes" because of her "no" phase, and then laughs because of her "everything is a game" phase.

And in news not phase related Marvelly can say 11 words now (and variations of a few others)...
"Hi!, wow, whoa, yeah, cat, No!, Da da, Ma ma, up, more (plus signing it), and Yay!,
2 more teeth have finally come in on top bringing her teeth count to SIX and she knows her belly, feet, head, eyes, teeth, and nose (maybe more body parts but those are her favorite right now)
