What happened to my baby?
Tristan’s new favourite hobby is to go into his room, shut his door, turn on his CD player and listen to music at eardrum-piercing levels. He’s not even FOUR YEARS OLD, fercrissake. At least he isn’t listening to Fiddy. The CD he is blaring is (quelle surprise) Thomas the Tank Engine.
Hmm, maybe Fiddy would be better…

OMG I think that is WAAAAY too cute!!!
Our boys got ‘little boy’ CD walkmans for Christmas from their grandparents and love them. They listen to them all the time!! I watch how loud it is though, afraid they’ll hurt their ears. Just take not though, when little boy eyeballs nearly pop out of his head after pushing play – promptly REMOVE the Eminem CD from his player and replace it with The Wiggles. Yikes – we do NOT know how that happened, that one to remain in car only from now on, the vehicle with NO car seats in the back.
Lots of CD time here too, but I’m usually invited to join the party….so far ;~)
It could be worse. Like a 90-minute marathon of Alanis Morissette’s “Hands Clean.” I’m not looking forward to the day that Baby Blue gets her own music player…
way cute! looks like you’ve got a music lover on your hands … remembering fondly how he loved to pound my ivorys and ebonys some time ago
How cute! You know what they say, toddler years repeat themselves when they reach their teens, this is what you have to look forward to

oh my god, is it wrong of me to think that that is just freakin’ hilarious. I love that he’s blasting thomas the Tank engine.
hehe… we once had a holiday in france with an 18 month old who refused to listen to anything other than “the snowman” on the car cassette player

we heard it about 2 million times, i think but i’m glad it wasn’t bob the builder or something like that
