May I Have the Etymology of the Word?

Wow! Trevin is such a talker. He really never stops talking! He is always making statements, telling stories and asking questions. Trev talks so much that he really can't get anything done. It is pretty frustrating whenever we try to go anywhere. We have to keep reminding him what he needs to be doing because he distracts himself with all of his talking. He has his own little language that is so cute. It is a little hard to understand him so here are a few definitions. You may notice a theme.

Re-tar-a : In English 'guitar'.  "I really want to play Laura's retara."
The 'a' on the end came from the character Katara on Avatar (I guess Guitar and Katara sounded similar) and then he just decided to replace the Ka sound with Re.

Re-pu-ter: In English 'computer'. "Mom, can I play paint on the reputer."

Re-mom-eter: In English 'thermometer'. "The remometer said I had a feeber (fever)."

Re-kra-te: In english 'karate'. "Did you see those rekrate moves that inja (ninja) has?"

Sweaty Head

Libby HATES her bed now. I was looking at the newborn pictures I posted of Libby a little while ago and was missing her like that. She was so sleepy and did all of her sleeping in her crib. Now she maxes out her crib time at like an hour a day. So she spends the rest of the night in our bed. I don't like it. Because she doesn't like to cuddle with me so she takes up all of the room, I am afraid we will roll on her, she insists on nursing like all night (meaning I have to lay in the most uncomfortable position so that I won't touch her but she can still nurse), and my number one reason why I don't like her to sleep with us because she is so hot!  This girl gets so hot and sweaty in her sleep. A few days ago she left this huge sweat ring on our sheet.


So Gross! We will have to change this arrangement because I am hating it! I think it may be time to wean her off nursing. I have a feeling life will not be pleasant for a while. But it will have to get worse before it can get better right?
