Too Much TV?

I forgot to mention in the last post that Jacob has a couple of favorite TV shows, and just recently he has started saying the names of the characters.

First of all, he does not care for Sesame Street in general, but he has a love for Elmo that seems to be hard-wired into every kid born after the year 2000. A few days a week, I make sure that he's able to watch "Elmo's World" so he gets his "Emmo" fix. He also has 2 Elmo toys, and always points out to us that Elmo is on his diaper. Oh boy.

Secondly, and less annoyingly, he LOVES The Wiggles. I have several episodes stored in the DVR, and every morning he gets to watch an episode. He can definitely pick out a Wiggles song among random music. There are several fun characters on the show, his favorite being Wags the dog (of course), but the one he has started naming is Dorothy the Dinosaur ("Doty"). When he sees Dorothy on screen or hears the song about her, he says her name.

What a little smarty pants!
