Little A got a bunch of hand-me-down Winnie the Pooh books and she loves him. So we ordered the classic movie from Netflix to take on our recent roadtrip and a week later we still haven't sent it back.
And so it begins . . .
The movie is quite expensive on Amazon and even ebay, but she loves it and asks for "Pooh" in the most pitiful whimpery voice, while in teething pain no less. And, as it turns out, it is a truly wonderful movie for kids that is pretty much faultless when you compare it to the more recent rehashed straight-to-video princess garbage Disney tries to sell little girls on (if that's your thing, go ahead and love it, but it's not mine). Sigh. We finally found a deal where we don't feel completely humiliated at Best Buy, which is better than continuing to pay Netflix rental fees until the end of time. Now the question becomes do I have the guts to get rid of our current video while we wait for the one which is truly ours to arrive?

Let us know whether or not you mail back the dvd before the best buy copy comes. I'm curious to know.
The plot thickens . . . It's on backorder!
Ah, yes. Have you introduced her to Dora? It is incredible -- something about Dora (maybe her big, hypnotic eyes) is enthralling to babies. That's the only way we get out the door when we leave Nile with the sitter. She could care less if we leave, never come back, and the house burns down -- as long as she can stare uninterrupted into Dora's animated eyes.
