Singing

Eddie loves singing—mostly, having his parents sing. He requests for us to sing all the time, and assigns us topics. "Sing Nonno," he'll say, or "Sing Basic." Sometimes we'll be inspired with involved lyrics and plot, but usually our songs are pretty repetitive ("Basic Basic Basic Basic woof woof," perhaps.) Other popular subjects requested include "Doggy," "Mommy," "Papa," "Grandma," "Subie," "Bone" (as in doggy bone), "Strega Nona," and whatever has his attention that day. More recently he's requested combinations in a song, like "Sing Nonno, Papa, Eddie" or "Sing Basic bone."

He also heard the song "Who let the dogs out," and it's one of his favorite things to sing himself now. He'll sing "Who doggies out. Woof woof woof!"
