Frère Jacques, revisited

Some of you may remember when Julia started singing "Frère Jacques" for the first time; AKA the "Dog my food" days.



Well, we now have a new version to add to the mix of children's first attempts at singing words in French: "Whera Jacques, Whera Jacques, Dog Bamboo, Dog Bamboo..." Here, Madeleine performs her interpretation of the beloved kids song:



Don't worry. Julia was VERY quick to point out Madeleine's language imperfections. I think she gave Madeleine a complex. In this video, Julia came to the rescue singing the song after Madeleine bailed out:



Besides singing "Frère Jacques," Madeleine has been also very busy on the potty over the past few days. Yesterday was the first day during which she stayed completely dry in between potty sits. Today has started off well, even though she wound up stuck on the potty for quite awhile this morning in order to get anything out. She didn't seem to mind her extended stay, because she immediately spotted the most exciting toy on earth: the "hiding tunnel."




Here's hoping Madeleine keeps the potty productions coming!
