Because I'm "that" mom

I'm just going to say it. TV is a wonderful thing. I know there are some parents out there who won't let their children watch any tv, but I'm not about to join their ranks. Acadia loves Curious George and we watch it every day at 3:30.

The one thing that I can count on to calm her down is to watch herself on video. Lately, if she's really cranky and nothing is working, I will ask her if she wants to "watch baby Cadi", and she will always, always, say yes and run over to the couch. She will ask for the same video to be played over and over and over again. And if watching herself on tv is what will turn my little girl back into an angel - I am willing to play these videos over and over!

Jenny, there is nothing wrong with being "that" Mom.... I have been "that" Mom since I've been a Mom... you need to do what you need to do sometimes.
I love that she likes wathcing herself. Tanner and Makayla love pulling out the old VHS tapes of themselves when they were younger... now I'm dating myself huh.
