Jingle All the Way

Today Tony and I went Christmas shopping with Matthew in tow. I know madhouse post Thanksgiving shopping isn't the best place for a baby, but it really wasn't too bad on Saturday. While walking through the aisle of Bed, Bath, and Beyond, Matthew started to fuss so I started to sing along with the piped in Christmas music... Jingle bells, Jingle bells, Jingle all the way.. Matthew immediately stopped crying. So every time he started to cry I sang the first verse (that's all I know) of Jingle Bells as frantically as possible. The faster and louder I sung the quicker he stopped crying and started smiling. On the way home Tony decided that he preferred the sound of crying to me singing/yelling Jingle Bells one more time.
