So the new thing around this house is Dora The Explorer. Addison can't get enough of it. I put it on one morning during breakfast and she was hooked. She really loves Boots, Dora's Monkey. I was pretty against TV at first, but after watching her trying to say Spanish words I don't see the harm in educational TV. I don't believe in using TV as a babysitter, but with limits TV isn't so bad.
Another new favorite is Apple jacks cereal. She asks for "Jacks" every morning as soon as she wakes. So everyday begins with Dora and Jacks. The other day in K-mart Addison saw a box of Apple jacks and would not stop saying Apple Jacks.I mean over and over again. So I had to get her some "jacks. She wanted to eat them right away. I had to pry the box from her to pay for them. We get to the car and I realized I didn't have a bowl put them in. This child was hungry and really wanting some jacks. I had to pull out some MacGyver stuff to please her. I had a fabric bag that holds sunglasses. The cloth bag became a make shift bowl. I filled the bag to the top and she sat quietly in the back chomping jacks the whole way home. Sometimes you just do what you have to do to please your kids.
