Piano Man

I know that most little kids get excited about making music on whatever instrument may be lying around however, I still get so thrilled at how excited Charlie gets about the piano and I feel so blessed to finally have a piano in my home after my many transient college years. Whenever I start playing, he feels that he needs to be right there with me. He likes to work the keys and then crawl under my feet to work the pedals. He likes to wave his arms and dance to the music, and sometime even sing. This melts my heart. I finally felt brave enough to let him sit on the bench by himself and play his heart out. He had a blast and probably could have stayed there for longer than I let him.  

                                       
Later, he figured he could start climbing and that was when he had to get down!

Also, we've been playing in the mud and rain. I might get sick of cleaning muddy feet and jeans in the near future but he just gets so happy to be outside and he's only young once, so I say "Let's get a little Muddy"

And while I'm on the topic of the happenings of Charlie, let's talk about his Vacuum obsession. If the vacuum is in the room, he has to be touching it...it's like there is a strong magnetic field between them. I'm trying to upload the video of this but it doesn't seem to work....Oh well, just imagine vacuuming with a permanently attached child. Pretty Funny.
