Well, as long as they were a good price on sale and you truly wanted them and you're keeping up with your TBR list, it's probably not that much of a lapse.
Myself, I've probably bought about 120+ totally new never-read-before in print-or-e full-length e-books* since around this time last year, and my mega-list of read 100 books in 2011 books says I've finished at least 51† of them since the start of this year.
Always look on the bright side of life and console yourself with the fact that your impulse e-book purchases may cost money you could have spent on booze and porn, and perhaps even taunt you with an unread status in your Calibre library, but at least they don't take up extra shelf space in your house.
* Anthologies, short-story collections, and magazines DO NOT COUNT.
† It'd probably be more if I didn't also insist on getting in paper books, library books, graphic novels, freebies, and of course, having to read textbooks.
