Xander's Guitar

It all started about a month ago, when Mom and Mark were nice enough to take Xander to the fair. I REALLY wanted to go, but knew the walking would be too much. He had a blast, of course, he's such a lucky boy.

They feed animals...

Broke a few rules while mom wasn't around...

Ate yummy fair food...

And grandma let him pick out ONE thing to take home. He chose a small, life like version of a guitar.

This is him playing it for Grandma at the fair.

Ever since the guitar came home we've had a bit of a little rockstar on our hands. He is actually pretty coordinated and can play and sing at the same time. When he's done he gives us a bow and we clap. It's pretty adorable.

He plays all the classics... Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, Itsy-Bitsy Spider, ABC's, Jesus Loves Me... He's pretty obsessed with singing lately, there's a whole set of songs they taught him at school he just wonders around the house singing. Things like... R-E-D spells red, firetrucks are Red, Stop Signs are red, R-E-D... or Y-E-L-L-O-W, I can spell Yellow... or 1,2,3 Jesus loves me! 1,2 Jesus loves you!... they go on and on. He seems to come home with a new song each week! He also loves singing along to the radio. He favorite song is "Life is a Highway" by Rascal Flatts (from the movie Cars) he sings it at the top of his lungs in the car on the way home from school.

AND lastly, for your viewing pleasure, his first music video... (Note: I didn't get my camera out in time and you can't hear great, but I think there will be MANY more to come!)
