I thought I had more time....
Just a little bit longer until the time finally arrived.
But I was wrong. It arrived a week after the one year anniversary of my daughter's birth.
That terrifying face!!!

I hate childrens television and kiddie songs. Up until now my daughter has ignored the presence of televisions. She loves the sound of music but hasn't paid attention to the TV. As soon as she hit a year old that changed and she started to notice and react to music on the television.
My daughter really loves row row your boat...We have a smartTV with a kiddy song app on it. I'm sure I've heard the song play 30 times this past weekend. Something about that particular song makes her smile and get all excited. I'm happy she loves music and things that teach the ABC's and numbers but I thought she would be older before she'd enjoy that kind of stuff.
It was nice being able to be selfish with the radio and TV.
My days of watching the Walking Dead and other shows with violence and bad language unguarded are numbered.
This is the beginning of having to wait until my kid isn't around or in bed to watch like 80% of the shows I like. Pretty soon she'll be hogging the remote to watch Disney movies and Nickelodeon. She'll complain how boring it is to watch the news and want me to turn off the Bachelor so she can watch...well to be honest I have no idea what shows are on Disney and Nickelodeon but I'm sure they are all horrible.
