Complete obsession. There must be subliminal messaging in the show. I turned it on the other day when I really needed to quickly get ready for Mike's office party and I needed Paige to stay in the family room. Well, as I was getting ready she did not leave the room for a good 45 minutes as the show played. Now she asks "doh-DOH? DOH DOH!!?" all the time. She follows this by "tv? TV?". I only turn it on when it is a good "babysitter"...ie. when she woke up really early the other day and i had a horrible night sleep. I got to slowly wake up as she watched the show. Or, if she has a short nap and I need to do something like banking. Or right now when she was desperately asking to watch it and I knew we had to get ready for swimming/I could write in this blog if I had enough time. But I swear she is not watching it all the time. The problem is that now I can't watch any tv at all since if I turn it on she says "No?....doh-dOH?"
I have to admit that this comes at the right time since she is not in a toy phase and only wanted me to read her books non-stop. And, it was getting really hard to get ready in the mornings as she ran around me and took stuff from my drawers. I'm looking forward to bringing out her new dollhouse we got her for Christmas.

OH, that is too funny....I don't know a kid yet that doesn't like the t.v. Don't feel guilty...We all know that you take her out and do lots of wonderful things with Paige. It is a great way to keep her occupied when you have to get things done. She will surely loses interest in time. Love Gramama
