Yo Gabba Gabba Tour, CD, and New Shows…oh my!

As I’ve mentioned many times before my son loves Yo Gabba Gabba, unfortunately for me my youngest daughter now loves this show.  What does that mean for me?  Well since you asked, it means that my television is tuned to Nick Jr. and Yo Gabba Gabba all day, every day!  Fun stuff!  Now since I know I’m not the only mommy who has this problem, I’m going to make it worse (sorry…but you’re kids will thank me) and tell y’all about all kinds of good Yo Gabba Gabba stuff that’s going on!

I mentioned the Yo Gabba Gabba Tour, There’s a Party in My City a few weeks ago, if you want to check out that review you can do that here.  But the initial ticket sales were great and they added more shows to their tour.  You can get all the information you need about the Yo Gabba Gabba Live Tour here!
