Momma Post: I hate to admit it, but the past five weeks have been a little overwhelming at times. Frequently I'm tired and often glued to the couch breastfeeding Willa, which makes it difficult keeping up with an active toddler. I'm completely guilty of relying on the television to preoccupy Ruby while I'm tending to her sister. I do justify my actions by telling myself that we only allow her to watch PBS KIDS Sprout programming (Sesame Street, Teletubbies and her favorites, Caillou and Make Way for Noddy). Due to Ruby's desire to watch her favorite shows repeatedly, both Matt and I have reluctantly memorized several Noddy episodes (and swear that Noddy has a "thing" for Tessie Bear). This weekend I had a breaking point and pulled out my dry erase board pens from my former life as a consultant, stripped Ruby and gave her full permission to get as messy as she wished without me wincing too much. She obviously needs her parents to get her a smock and art supplies for Christmas. The pictures of Willa depict her critiquing Ruby's work.
