More new words

In the past two weeks Marvelly has added
Mine
Up
pease (please)
dog
fish
stop
and Uh-Oh
(with attempts to verbalize 'thank you')
to her ever expanding vocabulary.

However, out of the dozen+ words that she can now say she is heavily favoring "MINE!" the most right now. Seriously, what is it with kids?! Is it not enough that when somebody takes your toy that you yell at them in their face and hit them somewhere on the body...now you have to throw "MINE!" at them too...just to make sure they understand beyond a shadow of a doubt that you don't want them playing with whatever it is you've claimed????!
Kripey!
Its gotten so bad that Marvelly will say "Mine!" even when no one is touching anything. She'll just walk up to you and very emphatically say "Mine!", and I'll look back at her like, "I don't have anything!!"
It's like she has to repeat it every so often to make sure she doesn't forget it, because by golly this is an important word to know!!
Ahh, the joy of an older sibling.
