Eden's vocabulary, phonetically, sort-of.

No = no
Yes = esth
Eyes = eyeth
Toes = tous
Light = ite
Nest = nesth
Please = peath, cheeth
Socks = gockth, ockth and, if she really focuses, sssssockth
Shoes = shyousth
Hot = ot
Clock = gock, ock (note similarities to "socks"), dock
Hat = at or sometimes hat
Peach = teach
Milk = nyulc-K (very pronounced "k" at the end, almost like another syllable) and sometimes mmmmmmyulc-K
Duck = duck or dock
Quack = duck - "duck" is also the sound a duck makes, apparently
Out = ow, ou-T
Eat = ee, ee-T 
Dog and Cat are still "woof" and "mow"


Some combinations:

Belly Button (aka Bee-bo) is still but-boh
Out, please = Ow-cheesth

Bye-Bye Mommy = Bye-Bye Madda or Bye-Bye Damma
