Jingle Bells

Jingle Bells is Gibson's new favorite song. Lately he's enjoyed any sort of music, and any sort of signing even more than before. And having eclectic musical interest of my own, we sing everything from traditional kids songs, to radio songs, to classical music to t.v. theme songs - so many important genres to expose him to. On our drive to Bob's folks yesterday, we had family Christmas sing-a-long in the car. Daddy would pick one, then mommy, etc. One of them had to be jingle bells, right?

We started singing and clapping, all was going as usual. Then came the "hey" part. Apparently the gusto with which Bob and I sang "hey" in unison was quite amuzing to Gibson. He laughed every time we said "hey" and then he'd repeat, "Hey!" Then later in the evening, after opening gifts with the cousins, we sang jingle bells, 8 or so people yelling "hey" was even better than 2, so Gibson was tickled beside himself. We got some pics I'll post later.
