Peter's new love

We just got back from a great weekend in Michigan at NanaB and GrandDad's house, but I haven't downloaded the pictures just yet.  Instead, I needed to report on Peter's new obsession -- Sonny & Cher.

You see, it all started with a magnet on NanaB's fridge that plays a snippet of "I Got You Babe".  Peter begged for it to be played over and over again.  Yesterday, Peter was having a rough time for some unknown reason and wouldn't quit fussing.  We tried everything (including his beloved monkey blanket), and finally I suggested playing "I Got You Babe".  It worked!  When we got tired of holding him so he could press the button, I put him on the floor and moved the magnet down low.  He must have played it 40 times in a row.

Was it annoying?  Yes, but not as annoying as a 14-month-old whining and fussing.  Plus, I kind of like the song.  Peter again just couldn't cheer up a little bit ago, so I downloaded the song for him.  He's happy now!  He really liked looking at the photos I pulled up of Sonny & Cher to show Charlotte.  Hey, whatever it takes to keep him happy, right?

Here's for you, Petey!
