The Battle has been lost!!!

Ever since we first found out we were gonna have a baby, I made it a point to raise this baby in an "Elmo-Free" home. Over the past 10 years, this little red "Grover-wanna-be" has taken over the Sesame Street we, the children of the 70's, and 80's grew up with. *sigh* After doing some work at a Toys R Us, I noticed the newest toy coming out next month. ELMO Live. So of course after the past 10 years and the popularity of the "Tickle me" series of Elmo dolls, and seeing Caleb's face light up while watching Sesame Street one morning, I knew the Battle to keep an "Elmo Free" existance had been lost. By the way, don't tell him, but his Mommy and Daddy have already reserved the "Elmo Live" for Christmas. How can you deprive this precious little bundle of joy?!
