Couch Potato

While we rarely watch TV at home, Caleb seems to be addicted to that colorful screen as soon as he sees its glow. He is not quite as interested in black and white shows but enjoys a Baby Einstein DVD we have and watching westerns at his Grandma and Granddaddy Vaught's house.

Twice last weekend, we laid him on the floor on his tummy with his head facing the opposite way from the TV. Both times he kicked and scooted 180 degrees until he was facing it; then, he stopped and just laid there staring at the screen. This was pretty amazing considering usually he just lays there like a log when you put him on his stomach maybe kicking his legs a little or fussing to be moved into a different position.

Plus, at least twice last week when someone was holding him on their lap facing the other direction from the television, Caleb arched himself back so he could watch it upside down.

What are we going to do with this boy!
