Day 179: New TV


Long story, here we go. A few months ago we got a new portable DVD player. It's nice to have one when we travel for long car trips and for use in hotels. The kids also use it at home when they both want to watch something different in the evenings. Well, a couple of weeks ago, the new one broke. It's the 3rd one that's broken on us in about 6 months, and that likely has a lot to do with the way they were treated by the kids. Fortunately I got a service plan with this one, so we were able to get it replaced no problems. However, we didn't really want to let the kids have access to it at home again, to try and prevent it getting broken again! So I suggested we get a TV for Elizabeth's bedroom instead. She currently falls asleep watching TV in Dave's bed, so we thought she might as well do it in her own bed (yes I know that's very frowned upon by perfect parents, but that's just how it is in our house, deal with it). So after a bit of shopping around we got this one yesterday in Costco. We also got a new DVD/VCR player combo to go with it. Now Elizabeth has the best TV in the house, and so far it's been a big hit!
