Last Sunday was the day of no sleeping - no naps either. So I was desperate for something to keep her occupied. I popped in the Elmo in Grouchland DVD, and she loved it. She sat still for a whole 20 minutes. She especially likes it when Bert and Ernie "stop" the movie. Bert is worried for Elmo, and Ernie reassures him that he'll be ok. She danced along to the songs too. When Rob got home Monday or Tuesday, I made the mistake of showing him the DVD case. She saw it and we had to watch it again. Tonight, Rob moved it or something, and she insisted on watching it again. She wandered around the room with the remote trying to get it to work and chanting "Melmo", so we turned it on. She got bored after a while, so we flipped it off and went to take a bath. Afterwards, I put Elmo pajamas on her, and renewed her interest. She was bound and determined to use the remote to find "Melmo". She didn't believe us when we told her Elmo went night-night.
