Norah Jones, Baby Whisperer (And New Pictures)

A couple of years ago, we visited our friends Ben and Sarah when their first child, Annie, was about 5 months old. Will shows some similarities to Baby Annie--both very laid back babies. When Will fusses, there is a good reason, and like Annie, he likes two things very much--1) to be where the action is and 2) the car ride, that is, as long as the car is moving.

When we were riding around with Ben, Sarah and Annie 2 years ago, Annie started to get fussy at red lights. Gus suggested playing Norah Jones, and Annie was immediately quiet again. With this in mind, Gus made a MP3 cd of all Norah Jones for our car before Will was born. And, it works like a charm. Will loves her voice, and he doesn't seem to mind too much when I sing along. Norah may like being known as a Grammy award winner, but to me, she is the baby whisperer.

Below are a few pictures our friend Meg took when we were in Fairhope a few weeks ago. I think they are just fabulous. She is an amazing photographer.
