Backyard Friends

We have a current crisis at our house. It is called Backyardigan Fever. It is very serious and the symptoms are feeling the need to watch or listen to the Backyardigans every second of the day. Also sometimes you see growths on the girls' arms that resemble Backyardigans plush 8" dolls. We get home from daycare and Elle requests the Backyardigans on TV. If I do not immeditaely respond she tries to clarify by telling me "Backyard Friends", like I did not understand her when se said "Backyardigans" the first time. The problem has even carried over to car rides, where they request the Backyardigans Music! I feel like we are apporaching an epidemic because Elle can tell me who is singing on the CD at any given time, and what the next song will be. I sit and try to think at work and hear the Backyardigans music, at least it is pretty good for kids music....and definatley beats crying or fighting.
