I need to spend more time with setting up Itunes and bringing my Ipod in the car because the radio is getting out of hand. I don't think it is much worse than it was say 6 months ago but 6 months Harmon couldn't talk. Now he can and HE LOVES music. He is very good at echoing things and learning new things. Just today his teacher asked me why he kept singing "Take it off" over and over again. Than I remembered Kesha's latest song and it made sense. The funniest thing he has sang in front of people was Lady Antebellum's "I'm a little drunk and I need you now". Of course that was in front of Chris' oh so conservative friends.
Anyway, I think Chris and I are becoming more aware of what we have on as background music. After all I can't stand Kesha but it is what is on the radio and I'm just listening to whatever is on. The final straw was tonight Chris said I really like this song: "riding around town with the girl I love, and I love you oh oh ohhh." So I listened to the lyrics and I was like I don't think that is what he is saying. So we used the iphone and googled only to find out it was worse than even I thought: I see you driving ’round town with the girl I love and I’m like “F*** you!” Ooo ooo oooo
and it gets a lot worse from there.So I need to stop being lazy. After all there is nothing cuter than him singing his Taylor Swift or when he sings to our nanny "Just the way you are". We just need to make sure we don't have him also singing any "Teenage Dream" type songs.

That is funny, and somewhat sad. :)
ReplyDeleteI read a long time ago that Mozart played for developing minds will give the kid a higher IQ and help with problem solving skills. I try to play that for my kids because of the study, but though I love classical, sometimes I break down and have to listen to Abba. Def Leopard comes out only after they have gone to bed. ;)
