Bad mommy!

I've just started letting the girls watch a little TV in the mornings after they eat their solid food.

I'm not one of those people who declared I would never let my kids watch television so I don't feel as though I am breaking any kind of moral code I set forth for myself.  But, I hadn't anticipated I would start using the boob tube this early.  So, every time I set up the high chairs and put on Yo Gabba Gabba, I walk away feeling a little guilty and mutter under my breath, "bad mommy!"

There are other times too:

Forgot to change diapers and remember several hours later because I notice Eliza's crotch sagging - bad mommy!
Didn't do all of Harper's physical therapy exercises every day - bad mommy!
Heard Eliza crying in the baby monitor at 6:30am and let her cry for an extra ten minutes so I could snooze - bad mommy!
Pick the pacifier up off the floor, lick it to clean it off and give it right back to my daughter - bad mommy!
Don't change out the bath water between baths so one girl gets a luke warm wash in second hand water - bad mommy!

I'm not beating myself up over it, though.  It builds character.  And, those 15 minutes of quiet every morning are worth all the self deprecation in the world.
