The new TMX Elmo came out about a week ago, and when I read about it, I had to have one.  No, of course not for Avery – for me.  This thing looked pretty cool.  Yes, it lived up to the hype.  Except that Avery is deathly afraid of him when he is turned on.  So for now, he stands there off, in the middle of the room, so Avery can pour her water on him and give him kisses.  Turn him on to actually use?  Certainly not… that’d be asking too much with Avery around.
