Pirates and PEG + CAT, a perfect combination. We’ve been fans of this cute little show since it started. We love the first book the Chicken Problem where kids learn to count to 100. We do try to keep a fairly clean DVR and figure that most of the shows for the kids we can get from On Demand, but having a decent DVD compilation of episodes comes in handy when we go on trips or for those times when we aren’t able to find the shows the kids want.

I have this framed painting on my desk. I got it a few years ago when I met comedian Mike Schmidt. It is a painting of me and little Schmidtty jumping up and down in wet cement. When I was taking photos around the desk I liked how Tree Rex lined up with me in the background.

I like that there have been some Christmas figures produced and there is this fun video of the Skylanders singing the 12 Days of Christmas.
