When driving the boys in my car, we often listen to the kids' channel on XM Radio. That's how we found family favorites "Happy Noodle vs Sad Noodle", "The Saga Begins" (Weird Al's Star Wars Episode 1 song), and the boys' favorite "Hampsterdance." When we pull into day care or home, they ask if they can listen to the rest of whatever song is on the radio.
The rule when I'm driving is they can listen, but only if we have a Car Dance Party. They get out of their car seats and go wild dancing. It never fails to make me smile!

Very cute.
I'm glad to hear that Michael is not the only kid that demands to hear the rest of the song in the car. I've also instituted the car dance party, but in our case, I always end up with Michael wiggling his hiney between the seats.
May I recommend Peanut Butter and Jelly Time for your car playlist?
LOVE that Casa Vinson-Mobile Version often resembles Soul Train.
Playing today :-)
I'm behind on life and commenting, but wanted to say awesome week of posts. Hands down Working Moms post makes your Top 10.
I second peanut butter jelly time. One of Jadyn's favorites. I am jealous that you have XM.
Next time I want video of the car dance party. Sounds so cute.
I love both boys' expressions in this picture!
Lately Cole only wants to listen to various Star Wars soundtracks. He either is the conductor or pretends to play an instrument (french horn is a recent favorite). This might be his understated version of car dancing.
I played along for today.
Cute picture of you guys! Love your idea of the dancing in the car!
You're such a good mom.
...I don't want to listen to that stuff, so my child doesn't even know it exists. See my point? You're a good mom.
Ok---AND---I just got caught up on your past many posts.
Pics of the new house? Lovin' your style. Yes, the legos are a nice touch. But, I'm just sayin'---it looks soooo inviting!
