Little Tomboy


I've always said Eva was a nice mix of girly-girl and tomboy, but lately she's been leaning much more toward tomboy. Her latest obsessions are:
  • cars - we're helping keep hot wheels in business
  • pirates- "walk the plank sister!", "don't touch my treasure matey!", "where's my stinky eye patch?" and "mom can i have a real sword?" are all very frequent sayings in this house
  • mulan - probably because she dresses up like a boy and carries a sword
  • boys clothing - while shopping at Target: me: "isn't this CUTE?" eva: "umm..i'm not wild about that one. where are the boys clothes?" i point. she grabs a blue dinosaur shirt. "i AM wild about this one!"
  • hyenas- i'm not too sure how this one got started. but they have taken over the house and they must be exterminated with special "hyena spray" on a frequent basis. if you ask her what she ate for dinner it's always "hyena".
i love her quirks and crazy imagination.

Would you rather that Mama Pirate was bald, or had a beard?
