It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas...

And, with it comes the onslought of commercials for various toys that my kids NEED!
Eddie is a normal kid that wants everything he sees on TV. I understand this desire as I used to circle everything under the sun in my mother's annual Sears & JC Penney catalogs.
But, last night he hit a new level of want. We were watching "House" (don't judge me on what I let my 3 1/2 year old watch on TV) when a commercial for some riding toy that hooks to your TV for road effect came on. That's when he announced "When I was a baby, I wanted that." Seriously? Because "that" didn't even exsist when you were a baby. You didn't even know what "that" was.

The boy has issues...

an imagination is a good thing, most of the time!

Dean also enjoys a good episode of House now and then...we just have to keep telling him the Dr's are trying to fix that poor man. That they are making him better.

Nevermind the scales and hives on his bloated face, that's nothing.

Oh, and even though Dean doesn't see regular TV commercials (at least not for toys, 'casue, come on, that's not what they're selling during House) he still wants EVERY TOY on his Baby Einstein DVD's and I quote "Dean will get that for Christmas"
