first year soundtrack

We just got some awesome new kid's music albums from my friends now that Aiden is paying more attention to what he's listening to and loooves to dance. He just cracks us up and I have a feeling his silly dancing is only goin to be more fun in the next year. These albums were my friend's solution to listening to the "wheels on the bus" too much. They are so awesome I've actually been listening to them even when Aiden's not around. They are Catch That Train by Dan Zanes, Ralph's World Happy Lemons, and You Are My Sunshine by Elizabeth Mitchell.

This same friend had given me the idea that she had cd party favors at her daughter's first birthday. I didn't use any kids music since most of the guests didn't have kids, but all of them loosely relate to the first year/playing/having kids. It's a mix of new and old music that both J and I like (talk about a challenge to mesh those music tastes together!). Mostly, they are songs that will always remind me of this first year (for instance, Frank's sister singing The Circle Game at his wedding).
