Here is another really fun song with a lot of beat. My kids love this version of the itsy bitsy spider. Although they are good with the mom and dad off key version during family home evening too. Spider beatbox - Unknown
I remember growing up and my mom would sing a few songs at bedtime. One that I have really liked is this "lullaby". Its funny sometimes to see what we pass onto the next generation. My mom would sing the first part, "lullaby and goodnight (and then I think) close your eyes and go to sleep" and then hmm hmm hmm all the way until almost the end when she sang "and the stars in the sky sing a sweet lullaby, and the stars in the sky sing a sweet lullaby." Funny - that's all I know because that's all she knew and now all my children will know. But its so pretty and restful and my kids do a pretty good job of settling down when I sing(mostly hum) this and hold them or rub their back. Brahms Lullaby [Piano] - Johannes Brahms

a girl's favorite thing





Its got to be Bath Time! Yah!!!


Can you see those teeth? She has two on bottom and four all coming down on top. What a beautiful smile.





Bailee's bath toys: a binkie and a washcloth. She's content right now but how much longer I wonder.

This face. It was just too funny to not include. It looks like an "I'm gonna get you" face.


Bailee used to lay so quiet for bath. And now....

Well she is finding bath for fun instead of just relaxing.

Sentimental -Yellow Dress


When I was a baby I wore this yellow dress and somehow managed to get a hold of it. So I have got a picture now of me and both my girls in this dress.

I just love this picture of Bailee. I love getting close ups of my children

and just soak in their eyes and every detail of their faces.
