As Bear continues to develop, I've been finding that conversations with her are becoming more interesting. Sometimes there is actually some substance to our "chats."
For example, yesterday...
Me: Bear, do you need to use the potty?
Bear: No, pah-yee(potty)...change die-ber(diaper). I yike die-ber.
Me: But you're becoming a big girl. You're still my baby girl, but there will be another baby soon and you'll be the big sister.
Bear: Baby? (and proceeds to rub my belly) My Baby?
Me: Yes, the baby will be yours, too.
Bear: (pointing to her belly) Baby here?
Me: No, you don't have a baby. Only mommy has the baby.
Bear: Eji Tales?(Veggie Tales?)
Me: Uh, okay, you can watch some Veggie Tales.
Okay, so she changes the subject quicker than a fox jumping over a lazy dog, but hey, this is the closest to a heart-to-heart chat we've ever had. I'll take what I can get.

That is so cute! So exciting to see how much she is growing & learning. She'll be a wonderful older sister!
