Vibrato

A few weeks ago Ethan got a Primary Colors CD in the mail from Grandma Karen. They are an a cappella group that jazz up children's songs. He LOVES it! One of his favorites is the Itsy Bitsy Spider. In the middle of the song they sing, "eeeeeeeeensy, weeeeeeensy, spiiiiiiiiider," in a really dramatic operatic style. We noticed that this is now Ethan's favorite part of the song...and he can hold out those notes! I love how he looks like such a serious little choir boy singing in this video.




Right now if you ask Ethan his favorite song he will tell you Elton John's "Crocodile Rock." It came on the car radio one day and I was singing along and he thought the "waaaaaa, wa, wa, wa, wa, wa..." part in the middle of the song was so funny. So we downloaded the song on iTunes and now he requests it all the time for our daily dance party.


The other day it came on the radio while we were pulling into the parking lot at Trader Joe's, Ethan cried when I turned off the car before the song was over. We had to have a lot of crocodile rocking afterwards to make up for that one.
