Just because...

Totally random, yes. But I thought it was cute how the bowl of watermelon matched the real thing.

This little girl loves high-heels

I made homemade playdough and Eva loved it.

An umbrella! (cookie cutter that is :)

"Cooking" with her playdough.

Just chillin'.

Ready for her best friend Abby's bday party. It was a St. Patrick's Day theme.

Eva loved wearing the crown and necklace and pin -- goodies from the party.

Take a bow!

Cheese!

My turn to take a picture?

I did it!

The next few pics are I'm cute and my mom couldn't stop taking pictures.

Many times I'll get out something to cut for a snack. Eva's response often is, "No, like this." Such is the case with the carrot.

Remind you of anyone, Mom Hunt? Think Bugs Bunny cartoons.... :)

Opening a surprise from Gma and Gpa Hunt. So excited! (She wore this dress for the next 3 days.)

Thank you, Gma and Gpa!

Eva completed her outfit herself, including the 6 pairs of big girl underwear she is wearing. :P

Helping roll out pizza dough for dinner...in style!

One of her favorite things is to "do the dishes," i.e. play in the water with the sprayer .

Markers are fun. But the most fun is putting the tops on your fingers.

It's Potty Time.....I think

Warning: This post contains potty talk. :)

I went to change Eva's diaper this morning. After laying her down, she looked at me and said, "Eva pee pee." I asked, "Did you go pee pee?" (This is a common conversation when diaper changes occur. Usually she thinks she's funny by saying that she didn't do what we are asking about.) This time instead of teasing me and saying no, she said, "No, Eva pee pee." Then proceeded to do what she just said she was going to do. (In case you were wondering, her diaper was still on, thankfully.) She looked quite proud of herself after finishing. I praised her for recognizing having to go and asked if she wanted to sit on her potty. That she said no to.

This is the first time that she has verbalized having to go bathroom. When she was around 18 months, she started taking interest in the toilet and whatnot, so we got her her own little potty. She would sit on it from time to time, but more out of copying than to do anything. So I never pushed it, not really knowing how to go about it. But I'm thinking this is a really good sign that she is ready to potty train and would like to capitalize on it. So what are your potty training ideas, methods, secrets, advice?
