Massive Storm -> Lots of Hail = ICE!

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

So, it hailed really bad and Calista immediately identified it as ice, which she loves to eat!

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Sunday, April 12th, 2009

So, Calista has started singing! Probably instigated by the potty training doll that sings “la la la la la la”. Well, we have for your listening pleasure, “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” by The McLaurin Family. Patrick has the worst tonal quality, but sort of knows where the notes are, Latisha has a lovely voice, but no idea where the notes are (though she’s getting a lot better!), and Calista, who only knows the chorus.

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

This would be the second song released by members of The McLaurin Family. Their first foray into producing “music” was a cover of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers’, “Free Fallin’,” performed by Patrick and Sarah in their younger years.

Free Fallin’

All members of the most recent incarnation of the The McLaurin Family are currently working on some instrumental pieces to be added in the future.

The Busby Family, who have yet to be coerced into the recording studio (Sarah left The McLaurin Family for The Busby Family back in 2008), came to visit us Lubbockites a week after we went to visit them. The little boogers had a ton of fun playing!

Calista came home from daycare the Friday of Spring Break having poured melted ice cream on her hair. So we gave her her favorite snack, cookies!

Calista has also started talking a lot more.

neendough = window

numi nac = gummi snack

We also teeteed in the potty for the first time after being displaced from the bath tub. Yea!
