Too Much TV! 28 December, 2008 at 6:36 pm
So, before DK was born, we were all intending to not let him watch any TV until he was at least two. But we had decided that I could still play on the game consoles with him around and that wouldn’t count (yeah yeah, but it was limited at least)
But he’s been getting to watch a little bit most of the summer, and when Kiir got pregnant and was exhausted a bunch he got to watch more. When we went to India, we figured we’d wean him off. What with there not being any TV for two weeks. Then he kept waking up at 2am and I kept handing him the iPod to watch tigger & pooh off itunes. Meaning he was probably actually getting MORE tv in India than at home.
Today we decided he wouldn’t watch ANY tv until after nap. Including games. So I played with him on the floor (although a lot of that seemed to be me playing with his toys while he wandered around). Then we ran out for an errand, ate lunch, and he went up for nap. And wanted nothing to do with it. So we went to the gym for swimming and he fell asleep in the car, so I sat with him while he napped again, and we went a few hours later after napping. Woke him up for it, actually. Then home and he finally got to watch something about 5:45 when I turned on the Wii to load up a website for him to click on like he does with Kiir’s second computer. Or makes her click on.
Then he escaped out to the main menu and was just watching that, so I turned it off and gave him his dinner :o I think we’re going to be watching SOMETHING after dinner. Kiir’s playing one of her new xmas games now, for instance
