Rhythm Nation

Recently, it has become clear that we are one step away from having a full rock n' roll band in this house. As many of you know, Daddy Zog is our resident guitar player and mommy dabbled a bit on the keys in her younger days. Well, it would seem that Baby Zog has the Rhythm deep in his soul. In the last few weeks, we have caught him numerous times turning his toys into drums. If there are no toys around, the floor or sofa will do. He also seems to have the rhythm in his bones and will often be seen stomping and dancing along with his current favorite DVD which is a Sesame Street DVD that features the cast of STOMP. I love to watch him imitate every move they make. Here is a quick video. It doesn't show him in his fullest drumming glory. I think he was conflicted because he wanted to watch, but he also wanted to play. I'll try to get a video of him stomping because that is great to see. If you are wondering while you watch, the answer is "Yes. He set up the pots like this by himself."
