Eliza and the mittens

Eliza is becoming more and more like a little girl everyday. She trots around the house with confidence and is exploring in every cupboard/nook/cranny she can find. What's interesting is her habitual nature, there are things that she does EVERY DAY. Like this one for example.......while we're cooking Eliza will often come into the kitchen, go derectly to the pot cupboard, open it and grab the oven mitts. She'll put them on (proper hands and all) and trot around the house with her big belly leading the way! It's as if she saying " Time to cook?? I'll help. But first let me inspect the house in my uniform!"
