Old MacDonald...a few surprises...

We definitely had a lot of fun in the bathtub last night.

The boys were great - and we were singing a lot of songs.  Of course, Old MacDonald is one of the boys favorites, so it was one of the first ones they started singing.

Mommy:  Old MacDonald had a farm
Boys:       E-I-E-I-O
Mommy:  And on that farm he had a .....
Lincoln:   Zebra!

Well, that one stumped me a bit.  Usually, a cow is the first animal.  And yes, we've ventured outside the normal farm animals before, and included a baby elephant, but we had never had a zebra on Old MacDonald's farm.

What does a zebra say?  All I could do was laugh.  And Lincoln loved that he had stumped mommy!

We continued on singing about cows and horses, and then it was Jackson's turn to pick what animal was on the farm....he decided Old MacDonald needed a Lincoln!  Lincoln's of course say "Hi!  Hi!" for future reference.  Then, the boys decided to continue giving Old MacDonald more family members, so he had a Jackson too.  But we can't stop there...next came a Daddy "with a daddy daddy here, and a daddy daddy there..." - pretty clever little boys.  Don't worry - Mommy made it to Old MacDonalds farm too!

With 2 very smart and crazy two year old boys...you learn to roll with just about anything!
