Meet MingMing and June,
four day old baby ducks.
It rocks having a sister with a petting zoo…

“Tonight, on Fox!
WHERE ARE THEY NOW!
‘Disney Transportation Superstars‘!!
Typecast and unable to find work,
Lightning McQueen, The Black Pearl and Doc Brown’s Flying Train
can now be found hanging around backlots,
checking soda machines for left change,
charging five buck a head for fan photos, and
selling maps to the Star’s Mansions…

Not quite three months old,
napping in his Moses Basket.
Yes, the Slumber Bear was almost the same size.

I took the weekend off, so once again
I’ve dipped into the “Archives”…

Much like Mount Everest…
“because it was there.”

"You give me that funny feeling in my tummy…"

So, today in the car, on a mundane trip home from the grocery store, my three year old pipes up from his carseat in the back:

“MAMA. May I have the Rollercoaster song, PWEEEEAASSEEE?!?”
Yes…he meant RHCP: Love Rollercoaster. (now playing over there —> )
And yes, he can sing along with the chorus, the “ooh, ooh, ooh, oooh oooohs” AND the “one, two, one two three” parts.

*sigh*

As if that wasn’t enough to plaster a stupid grin on my face, next he asked for:

“The Woo Hoo song, Mama…the Woo Hoo song!”
Oh, yes. He meant Blur: Song 2
Polite kid that he is, he LOVES the “pleased to meet you” part, and sings along with gusto.

To complete my afternoon o’ happiness, he finished his set request with:

“Mer’yun Toast Burning, Mama! C’mon!”
Seriously. My son LOVES Beat Soup: Miriam, You Toast is Burning .
Asks for it over and over and over.
At three, he’s into obscure ska. I friggin’ LOVE it!
(You’ll need to stop the music player to the right to start this youtube. Not the greatest – the album version is much better, but it’s all I could find on the web.)


Am I a proud Mama? Ohhhh, yes.
He may not have any idea what the “Wheels on the Bus” do when he gets to Pre-School, but I don’t consider that any great loss…heh.

And sometimes
a good Italian boy
just needs a nice, hot
slice a’ pie.

(The cannoli was gone before I could get the camera out again…)
