Our Song...

I love to sing in the car and apparently I play some songs my kids even like. There are requests that come from the back portions of the vehicle and I try to accomodate them. One of our favorite songs is by Taylor Swift. I thought I'd give you a sample of another great singer in our family. She loosens up a lot after the first minute. In fact, perhaps she loosens up a bit too much. I'm not sure what all the fancy footwork is about, but hey, the music gets in you and you can't fight it. And, well, you all know, "Nobody puts Baby in a corner!"

Of course Owen wanted to sing a bit himself. I had him do a solo, but decided it was a bit more fun to see the interaction of the two. Witness video number two which is just the first verse of the song.

Talents, talents, talents

Each child has unique talents. Here is my little smorgasbord. I have to just grin from ear to ear when I watch this one:

Then I have to laugh at Owen for his decision of which number is the correct number to stop at. Why do we count to ten and stop anyway? And, of course, once you get your camera out, a child is never going to do exactly what you've seen them do a million times in a row.

Okay, take two:

Now, for the singing. Ryanna's teacher loves to teach them new songs and Ryanna loves to sing them to us. Sometimes we learn the words too. Sometimes we sing a verse or two and sometimes we leave in the middle. Either way, it's entertaining.

And, for those of you who just can't wait for the next installment of cuteness from my kids, wait till Saturday. There will be violin!

Double Threat

So, as you see in the post below, Ryanna plays the violin. Well, she's also taken quite a liking to one of my Christmas CD's. She has taught herself the lyrics during the course of this last month. Tonight she grabbed this huge microphone she has that echos and started to sing the song. You'll notice the initial verses are a bit vague for her, but the chorus is all hers. Enjoy! (Since I don't think this will post on blogger correctly--is anyone else out there having major issues with their pics and videos posting weirdly?), go to youtube here and view it.

****UPDATE!!!*** Okay, after all this constant teasing about me owning a Britney Spears Christmas album, I had to set the record straight. I do NOT own a Britney Spears Christmas album. I own an album called Platinum Christmas which features various artists, one of whom is Britney Spears. To further repair my tarnished image, it also features such artists as: Dave Matthews, Dido & Whitney Houston. Enough!
