spongebob anyone?

this past weekend i went to philly (well, close to philly anyways) to visit my cousin Jamie, his wife Sarah, and their 3 kids. will is 6, haley is 4, and kate is 2, and they are really fun and can be such a handful, as you can imagine. we went to will's baseball games, traveled to the jersey shore for a little boardwalk action, rides and funnel cakes included, and played cowboys and indians in the backyard. all in all, it was an awesome weekend!

my favorite story though happened while we were waiting for kate to wake up from her nap to head to the beach. here is what transpired:

jamie: do you want to watch a show while we wait for kate?
haley: yeah, i want spongebob!
jamie: ok i'll look (scrolls through the guide), sorry haley, spongebob isn't on, just madagascar
haley (annoyed): dad you have to check and see if spongebob is on demand!
me: she's 4 and she can use on demand?
jamie: oh it's a whole new world out there. you have no idea.

kids and technology are frightening! the hardest part of babysitting for me is always figuring out the tv
