TV time

I was reading a friend's blog about a family that only let's their children watch one hour of tv a day. I decided that Reagan has been watching way to much tv lately. We were at Grandma's house the other day and all she talked about was her different shows...Dora, Wonder Pets, Elmo, Wiggles, Winnie the Pooh etc. etc. It's not like we just sit home and watch tv all day but it's on while I exercise, shower, in the evenings, etc. When you add it all up she watches quite a bit more than an hour a day. So the last 3 days she has watched only a total of 2 hours of tv. She has been a much happier girl and well behaved. I think tv actually makes her cranky. The more she watches the more she wants to watch and the more cranky she gets. It's kind of ironic because I use tv to get her to be good but it kind of backfires. Anyway, I am proud of myself for being tough even though she's asked for her "show" plenty of times.
