"Nan Nanes"

Dan Zanes is one of our favorite kids performers. We bought a DVD of his and Ellie loves it. He has wacky hair, catchy songs and they use cool musical instruments. Some of her favorite songs are: All Around the Kitchen, Jump Up and Polly Wally Doodle. Chris and I personally enjoy “Pay me your money down”. We enjoy singing that one throughout our day. I even had a dream where Dan Zanes and Barbara (one of the singers in the band) came over for breakfast!

Another of her favorite kids singers is Laurie Berckner. She has some great songs like, We Are the Dinosaurs, The Goldfish and Elizabeth’s favorite, The Bumblebee. She goes around the house “buzzing” like a bee quite often!

you put that where???

I used the thermometer this past week on Josiah. Since he's only 10 weeks old you can guess where I put it. Well I didn't clean it right away. Instead it sat on the kitchen counter for a few days . . . until Chris walked in one evening. Yep, you guessed it, he put it right in his mouth as I was saying, " No, don't put that in your . . . mouth". I looked at him w/ the thermometer in his mouth and told him where it had been last. There was nothing he could do at that point so he just continued to take his temp with a funny look on his face.

Now, I'd better go clean that thermometer . . .
