That is really adorable. Lily was just like that with Jason's--until Jason dropped it. Bye-bye ipod. Notice though, it was not Lily that dropped it. :)
Seth is now 4 and we bought an iPad for the family which he has taken over as his own. He sits for hours and works on the sandpaper letters (a Montessori app), the US map (another Montessori app), music, pics, and this crazy giraffe that mimics everything you say (and sounds like he's on helium). There are SO MANY educational app for the iTouch and iPad it's amazing!
These kids are digital natives, unlike us the digital immigrants. My colleagues and I are integrating more technology into our classrooms every day to keep up with the interests of this generation :-)
I refuse to have games on my phone for this exact reason. The kids will think they have some kind of squatters' rights when I let them play with it. Or maybe I just hate games. It's a toss up. Either way - Chris is the one who has to fight for use of his own phone on the weekends. So I must be doing something right.
There was a gamer/anime thing going around awhile back, a quote I saw on t-shirts etc. "all your base are belong to us" ... whenever I see my kids (or others' adorable munchkins! Your little guy is sweet!) taking over mom and dad's tech... that is the quote the comes to mind. So far I've managed to keep Honor away from my ipod as a mobile tool - she does use it in the dock speakers. I'm afraid if she gets more familiar with it, I'll never see it again :)

We often resort to entertaining Owen with Kevin's iTouch during church.
Can you believe our babies are 21 months?

We have a similar issue in our house: Nick thinks the iMac is his...sadly he uses it so well, it could be....

Too cute! My 5 year old boy is heavily into games. I have all these limits and then I give in because it makes him so happy.
Love this photo.
SMALL sacrifice.
