TV or no TV, that is the question

I am reading blogs and facebook. It is lame and soaks up my time and attention. Isaac likes to be diverted with the TV, but I often times tell him no because it does nothing for his brain. (hmmm, I might be feeling a little like a hypocrite) Just now:
Isaac:Mom can I watch TV?
Me: Mmm, yes.
Isaac: (incredulously excited): Did you say yes?!?
Evidently, it doesn't take much to make me feel like I am an okay mom after all.

You've had a birthday, shout HURRAY

HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY SETH!
You have your mommy wrapped around your chubby little finger. I could eat you up. We have been nearly inseparable this last year and are still happy to be paling around together. Your papa and Isaac are also members of your fan club.

Birthday festivities took place at Grandma's and Grandpa's (Eric's parents) house. Carol, Martin, Trent, Great Grandma Hatch, Evan, JaNeece, Sam, Lauren all came to help celebrate. Cousin Even descibed what happened perfectly: Little Seth fell asleep in his high chair with his head rolled back and his mouth wide open during lunch before the cake was even brought out-hilarious! Seth slept that way for about an hour, and then when he woke up the party resumed.

These are a few of your favorite things:
  • Isaac
  • 6:20 pm or whenever your papa walks through the door
  • raspberries
  • being held
  • going to bed with your mommy
  • bathtime
  • jumping
  • grandma's canned pears
  • music and moving your little body, you shake it even while sitting down
  • books, eating or reading them
  • the laptop, boy do you love pressing the buttons, you've removed several of the keys of daddy's laptop
  • the remote, it also has buttons
Here are some things you could do without
  • Isaac
  • changing your diaper
  • gerber baby food
