drums


So, we've been wanting to get Jeremiah a drum set for a while just to get him exposed to different things. Since tax time was good to us this year, we finally did it! Jenner & Mikey convinced me to get the regular sized set to save money by not having to buy one later down the line when Miah would outgrow a jr set. Anyway, we found a decent set at Best Buy of all places and luckily Mikey was here to set it up and tune it.


The kids were at Lolo and Grandma's house when we bought it, so before I picked them up we rearranged some furniture and set up the drums in the kids play room/guest room. Jeremiah usually doesn't want to leave Lolo's house (probably because he always gets his way there!) so I had to coax him by saying he had a surprise at home. Being the chocolate freak he is, he thought it was some type of chocolate something or other and kept saying, "Is it chocolate Mommy?"


So we finally got home and boy was he surprised! He didn't like the cymbals at first and was hesitant to make so much noise. We just let him take it all in until it was bedtime. The first thing he said the next morning though, was, "Mommy! I pway the cymbows??" and headed straight for the playroom!


Hopefully he starts practicing more so one day he can become a famous drummer and buy daddy & mommy a house! :)
