Music

So I was taking a break from researching HOW to get Lily the correct nutrition without making her throw up.... I added music to her site. I had run across a couple feeding site blogs and they all had music- I figured I could do it too. Unfortunately that means no shower again today- so be grateful I can add tunes and not smells.

I picked some of her favorite songs. Just be prepared if you are looking at work.....turn the volume down! I love IZ's Somewhere over the Rainbow- it gained notoreity as it was Goose's(Doc Greene) final song on ER. I had long since stopped watching, but had heard of it through friends who kept me updated. It had been a favorite song of mine before that and had actually made appearances in different films -but here on the island- it was played constantly when I was pregnant with Lily. Most memorably, On March 14th, 2005 as Phil carried this enormous bundle from the OR at Tripler, I laid there finally by myself for the first time in years and it played on the radio. So in my mind, it is always Lily's song.

  1. Well... the music disclaimer in your blog came too late for me - I'm at work, eating a sandwich, decided to see how Lily is, and WOW... my volume is up high. I was lucky enough to have 3 employees hear the tunes and they quickly started to do a jig - a jig in hard hats and steel toe boots that was not well choreographed. If I only had a digital camera - at least they were safe....

  2. That gave me chills! I LOVE that version of "Somewhere over the Rainbow", but it always haunts my brain for days after I hear it. I had no idea it was so associated with Lily's birth for you, but it seems fitting somehow--her birth and your big move to Hawaii are so intertwined in my mind.

    Love you!
