I BROKE MY #1 RULE

I have always been the mom that wasn't a fan of "characters!"… Please don't take offence, but I've seen them as tacky and just unnecessary except for on the occasional jammies or underwear! But my baby has fallen in love with ...Yo Gabba Gabba! Have you seen it!? It's the strangest thing I've ever seen and holds his attention like nothing else. He sits (or usually stands) for the entire 20 something minutes in awe of what is before him...the weird dancing, singing, characters, 80's video game noises...he loves every minute! And, it teaches him about sharing, about not being scared of things, about not biting your friends, trying new foods, about animals and more! Anyway, while at Target a few months ago, we walked by the clothes isle and we seen this t-shirt, I held it up and it immediately caught Brody’s eye…! “Gabba”!..." he said with such excitement and enthusiasm!!! I handed it to him and he just held it staring and smiling at the characters… Now tell me how I could have said no to that!! So, we left with the Gabba shirt...I hadn’t put it on him yet because again it is a bit silly looking, but he looks pretty darn cute, if I do say so myself! ..So, the mom that said "never" has caved...and I'm totally OK with it! : )
