Guitarin' with Mr. Atkins

A couple of weeks ago the boy saw a CD in the player.  

"'dis, dis, wana play 'dis" he says.

"Ok, you want to listen to Chet Atkins and Tommy Emmanuel -The Day the Finger Pickers Took Over the World.?" I say.

"Yeah."

The second it started playing he wanted to play along with his guitar. That at this point he has no concept of how to really use it.  But it was after the first super-cute music session that I made up a strap out an old belt of Wifes and recorded the video below. It can't hurt to start early.

Now every time we listen to the CD, we get this show:

Plus I figure that Chet Atkins and Tommy Emmanuel are a pretty damn good guitar role models.

Daddy blog

It's hard not to do a little daddy-blogging these days, what with such a cute kid an all. Plus for my family that stops by (and a few readers), I know they like to see new pics of LilGuns.

This was taken during tubby time yesterday. At 2.5 weeks he can hold his head up pretty good, turn that mellon left to right and hold up his uppper body with his arms for a short time. He's advanced ;) .
