Amy Explores the Tuba

In my opinion, 2 year olds are all about exploring their personality. It's even better when there are fun things to explore, like, for example, TUBAs.

When Uncle Joe arrived, he brought with him 2 tubas. He brought them for 2 reasons: 1) family pictures; and 2) to play Christmas carols outside while the street fills with onlookers of all the Christmas lights. Joe and my brother Mark (on trombone) played the most. My sister Tracy joined in on violin. I did a little on flute.

The girls love the music. They especially like that Joe can play ANYTHING!!! For some reason, Amy was especially interested in the tuba. So Uncle Joe let her give it a try. She actually got a few really good sounds out. These are just some really cute pictures of her exploring the tuba. Oh, and a side note: Amy really doesn't like wearing clothes. She's cute in anything she wears, even if it is just her underwear. :)

I think this one almost looks like she is popping out of the tuba.
(Don't mind the Glenn Beck book on the table. We all had a chance to read it this holiday season. Just ignore the differing political views between several people in the family, and it's all good.)

After she got some good sounds out of the mouthpiece, she discovered the bell.
She enjoyed yelling inside it.


She made us all laugh! Maybe we have found another tuba player, just this time in the Biggs family.
