A sign of how much I am losing it...I turned on the tv today. This morning I woke feeling worse and more tired than when I went to bed so we watched Sesame Street, me curled up on the couch under a blanket. Chris asked Bowie, "What are those?" "Puppets."What? How did he know they were puppets?! And this afternoon I put on our Dogtown and Z Boys dvd. He was actually really interested for about the first 40 minutes. But his interest waned and he started pacing in front of the tv. It's interesting how he reacts to tv and movies. He doesn't ask to watch it. I don't think he even thinks that it is an option as an activity. That's cool.

I've been afraid to post a comment until reading this. Why? I was afraid that you would look down on me for a few of my parenting choices--front and center being the fact that I lulled my baby to sleep with a Baby Einstein video last week. But now that I see that extenuating circumstances will also force you to turn on the TV, I feel confident enough to break out of lurker mode. :)
Anyway, I've been enjoying your writing and also your photography. I try to get pictures of my baby (5 months), but it's actually hard to be far enough away from her to use a camera! Blogs like yours remind that it's important to get those pictures, though, because I'll be able to treasure them forever, long after my little girl is not so little anymore....
