Counting

Eva loves to pretend to count. One of her Baby Einstein videos teaches the numbers one through five, and lately we've been showing her how to count to 5 on one hand. To her, it's a fun game. She'll stick out different fingers (in no particular order) and try to count. The only numbers she can say clearly are "two" and "fwee", but she doesn't yet know where in the sequence they belong, or to which fingers. She just likes to say them. It's so cute to watch her pretend to count on one hand, and after a few minutes, finish by clapping her hands and yelling "yay!" to celebrate her success.
