Doop-dop-dop Deep-dop

Julia continues to revel in making up her own songs (and singing them on repeat); with a composer mother and an improviser father, it's really no surprise that she takes such an interest in making up melodies. Her newest composition, "Hold My Hand on the Sidewalk," debuted last weekend as she and Ethan walked to pick up bagels, and it was such a success that we've had multiple performances throughout the week. She even shot the music video last night:



And lest you think she might be a one-hit-wonder (though with "Schoolbuses" in her repertoire, I'd say she's already proven herself), she premiered a second song this week. This song, inspired by Julia's attempts to stop Madeleine from crawling around in the kitchen, goes something like this: "No no in the kitchen-bitchen!" (For obvious reasons I decided this one might not be appropriate to get on video.)

Madeleine has been goofing around in a different way; here she is getting kisses from her teddy bear, which she thought was just about the funniest thing imaginable (although a cameo from Julia distracted her towards the end):
