Up to a certain age I could do everything with DD, even the same way .
I dont' think a little amount of TV is evil though.

I was just reading the post about letting your little one watch tv, and our LO also likes TV. What harm does it do for them to watch TV before they are 2?

My H has been working 7 days/week about 15-18 hours/day for over a month, and it's going to continue for at least through the spring. He typically has long days, but it's never been this bad, and I'm kind of going crazy here. I always tell myself that...

If it helps any, maybe you could get your toddler a daddy doll? I have one in my siggy and although evelyn is too.
