Poor Christopher Robin


Every Saturday morning, Micah wakes up earlier than we wish he did. Our family tradition is to stick him in bed with us and watch cartoons. We don't get Sprout, so we are limited to Noggin and Disney unless we want to pull up Free On Demand. Anyway, we've always liked the Wiggles, so we'll usually watch their show at 7:00 am. Our true favorite though is the show after it - Little Einsteins!

I like that they teach music and arts and they are fun. What kid doesn't want a rocket? Sadly, I remember making fun of this show when Josh's little cousins were staying at our house. Now it's our favorite show. I wish they played it more than once a day.

I do not care for the show that comes on after it. It's called My Friends, Tigger and Pooh. I love Tigger and Pooh, but it bothers me that they have this girl named Darby with them. Everybody knows that Christopher Robin is the only human that belongs in The Hundred Acre Wood. I genuinely get sad that they didn't just use Christopher Robin. Why did they have to bring in Darby who wears a funny hat that doesn't match her outfit? Yes in this picture it's a helmet. I'm all for head safety, but in others it's a hat.



Poor Christopher Robin. He's been cast out.

LOST


I'm an addict. I want to watch it all day long just to see what happens, but I've committed to watching with my husband and to not looking up answers on the net, even though I've got tons of questions.

We never watched this show when it first came on. The summer after the first season, I was in a wedding in San Francisco. My husband and some of the other husbands and groomsmen all got together and started watching it. Josh was hooked. When he finally got season 1 for Christmas, he wanted me to watch it with him. Unfortunately, I was busy trying not to let my head explode while trying to grade 150 essays in one day. Yes, I'm a procrastinator - especially with essays. So I made fun of this silly show called Lost while I tried to score essays. From then on it was a dumb show and wasn't going to watch it. Fast forward to the end of May. I had fallen asleep on the couch and Josh was watching the latest episode. I woke up and started watching it and was quite interested. Josh was getting a little frustrated that I wasn't watching it in order. Thus began my trek through the episodes of Lost. I'm hooked!
