Anyone who knows my husband, knows his affinity for music. He has two blogs that are strictly devoted to music. http://pantheonsongs.grigr.com/ and http://overlookedsongs.grigr.com/ I am less of a critic and more of a if it sounds good I'll sing along kind of girl....and believe me I sing it out!
Cooper and I have the BEST bedtime ritual. I swaddle him up, dim the lights, and cuddle up with him in our big, fabulous chair. We read a couple of books and then I treat Coopaloop to my lovely renditions of favorite children's songs and timeless classics like Wilson Philips' Hold On and Whitney's Wanna Dance with Somebody.
I'm putting together a document of all my fav songs, so little man doesn't get sick of hearing me sing Baby Beluga every night. I'm listing out my favorites, as well as, the lyrics. I've got a really good memory for tunes and lyrics, but sometimes...I just think I know the lyrics, wink wink. I would like to say that I just sing to my little love and throw caution to the wind with the words that I just can't remember, but I don't. Wickeds' Popular is owed some respect. The least I can do is learn all the lyrics.
Here is the current Fallible Mommy Playlist (these are the songs in heavy rotation because of sleep deprivation)...

Fallible Mommy Momment: Sometimes I'm in such a daze when I'm singing that I totally blank out and just stop singing...until someone reminds me that I am not to stop until his eyes begin to roll and the sleep smile appears.
Here is my song/lyric list so far...
