Too Much TV?

I try not to leave the TV on too much during the day, I really do. But it can be nice at times just to have the background noise, and also just to feel a little more connected to the outside world. Honestly, I feel so cooped-up and trapped on some days, especially because it's so cold that I can't really take them out for nice long walks anymore.

But I have to wonder if I have the TV on too much lately, because every time the "800-588-2300, Empire!" jingle comes on TV, the babies literally stop in their tracks, turn to look at the TV, and start gyrating their torsos in what I can only surmise is their first baby dance. (Although it looks a little like an upright version of The Worm. Maybe they're trying to breakdance?) Either way, it's freakin' hysterical. One of these days I'm going to take a video and upload it for you all to see.

  1. Oh, I remember the commercial that did that to Bub, back when I could watch actual grown-up TV shows with him in the room (instead of the diet of Curious George and Hi-5 to which we are all now restricted).

  3. I love that commercial! We also like theme songs to shows on Boomerang (the Cartoon Network- Smurfs, Snorks, Looney Tune Babies-"Tweety such a sweetie" is a big line around here!)

    We use to think Ainsley was just a natural on the computer because she could remember all of the addresses for the websites she played on. Then we realized that every kid show has at the end something like "Come visit me at PBS Kids dot org". Now we realize that she not only watched too much TV but plays the computer too much too! Darn technology!
