name that song

I know Graham is going to write about lots of things very soon (like the beach and our new place), but I wanted to write this down before I forgot. Eden can now successfully identify 4 songs if you hum or whistle them and ask her to guess (Happy Birthday, Lullaby {the version I sing to her at night}, 3 Little Monkeys Jumpin on the Bed, and Skidamarink a dink a dink I Love You).

I wasn't sure if she could do it but one morning this week Graham started singing a random, made-up song to the tune of Happy Birthday while he was cooking breakfast, and he was promplty corrected by a little two-year-old saying, "Dat's not Happy Birthday, Daddy!" You can imagine the almost eye roll that went with it when she said it :).

We've been practicing with other songs, like Twinkle-Twinkle, and I'm sure her little brain will be making more connections in no time.

  1. Little Monkeys Jumping in the Bed is one of my favorite songs...and one that we sing quite often around here. I'm sending hugs down south for you all!
