Cartoons

Addy will watch cartoons for about 4.5 seconds before she is ready to move on to the next activity. One morning Toph and I were getting ready to go, but Addy thought she needed to be held so she could be in on the action. We were running late and desperate, so we decided we would try to force our daughter to watch cartoons (we are amazing parents). We sat her in her special chair and gave her some crackers in a bowl and her drink.  Addy had never had crackers in a bowl before and she thought she was pretty special. Every time we would walk into the room, she would hold up her bowl of crackers and say "ca-ca" with a big smile. 


 As you can see, the crackers and drink did the trick and Addy watched cartoons for about 5 whole minutes. As soon as the crackers were gone, Addy was done. I walked into the kitchen and found that she had kindly set her bowl in front of the sink for me to wash. 
I don't really know why she put the bowl right there, but I'd like to think that she is just a big helper and likes to keep a clean house.......I can dream.
