DVR Guru

Ever since we got a DVR 9 months ago, our TV viewing habits have dramatically changed. And as much as David and I have enjoyed it, we were a little surprised how much Thomas has enjoyed it. He loves recording his favorite shows so he can watch them whenever he wants instead of waiting for them to come on. He loves fast-forwarding through the commercials, and sometimes scary parts, so he can keep watching his show uninterrupted. He likes that so much that he's disappointed when he's watching live TV and he can't fast-forward. And then today at lunch, we were in the kitchen eating but he could still hear the television in the other room. He said, "Mommy, I'm going to go pause my show so I don't have to keep worrying about what I'm missing."
