    Yes... That's the bumbo. fantastic invention.

    She is just as happy watching baby einstein through youtube on my phone, so I've got some work to do to build her appreciation of audio and video.

    Nice setup!!! Wish I had something that big to watch at that age. I think I had a 13" tv.

    Where did you get the movie decor over the TV?

    Man, I want to be small and sit in a green pod.
    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    Yea, thanks!... She's close! It's been great up until this point thought because once they can hold their head up you can put them in it. Now we aren't more than a couple feet away when she is in it.

    Someday I'll get to watch movies again...

    Not until you get a second HT or she moves out.

    Trust me on that one. I only get to watch what the 16 yr old queen of the house watches (unless I beat her to the tv) :rolleyes:
    My equipment sig felt inadequate and deleted itself.

    Thanks! I built my basement 4 years ago with an RPTV built into that wall and just recently had to fill in the hole to hang the plasma. I still wouldn't change a thing, though because I like having the gear built into the wall with all of the cables hidden.

    Anyway... I think my wife got the decorations at Gordman's. (outlet department store-like place.)

    Thanks. I built the wall a few feet out for the actual concrete wall (my basement) and can get behind everything through an adjoining closet. I now have a little more room back there than I need because I originally had a 51" RPTV built into the wall so that the screen was flush, but now with the panel and the filled in hole, I've got lots of room back there. It's nice to have all the cabling out of sight as well.

    I've been plannin on taking some pictures of both my HT and 2-channel to post here but just haven't.

    Those would be for the 2-channel upstairs. I must say that she seems to like actual, real music through the 2-channel much better than the twinkly dinkly MIDI crap on the baby einstein DVD's.
