Oh Christmas Tree

This should have been posted closer to Thanksgiving.  Babymomma set up this wintry scene for the babies.  In their shared gait trainer, this desk is the perfect height for them.  The two colored "buttons" are touch activated, the slightest touch, and they are plugged into a box that you can set for time so when it times out, the buttons need to be tapped again; teaching the little ones cause and effect and also empowering them.  One button turns on all the lights, the other button sets the King and Queen to dancing while playing Zippa-dee-do-dah.  We wish it played a Christmas song, but covered in "snow" it makes for a very festive scene.  Grandbaby girl was terribly sick for the past six weeks or so, making it pretty much impossible for her to be in her gait trainer so we would put the buttons on her lap in her stroller.  I was hoping for THAT picture, when she first turned it on and her face was full of wonder but she's just been too sick to really enjoy much of anything.  She is doing much, much better now so for that we are very grateful.

  3. Wow! Baby-momma is festive/fun & clever! And w/ as much fun as I'm guessing the babies are having w/ their new sense of empowerment, well - will just say "Zippity do da" will probably forever be considered a Christmas song in your home from now on! LOL ... Hmmm mb we could change it up a bit - "....my oh my whatta WoNdErFulL day (Christmas!) ... plenty of snowflakes heading our way ... Zippity do dah, Zippity yeah! ... Mr. Cardinal's on my shoulder .... " : )

    And whatta joy to read the very last sentence!

  4. Ha Ha!! or should I say "Ho Ho HO!" I like that rendition, although Bluebird still works as I see more in December than in the springtime.
