Wait– Get Set Go
When Baby Beej was born, we spent a lot of time together while his parents were working and big brother, CJ, was at school. That’s when I discovered Grey’s Anatomy and the joy of Netflix. Beej grew to love the songs that played in the background but his favorite was always the theme song- Cosy in the Rocket. The minute he heard the opening chords of the song, he could be quieted from a full screaming fit. When we rocked at nap time and bed time, I started playing some of the slower songs and before long we had a set playlist we followed. These songs were guaranteed to relax and/or knock him out. The problem was he was supposed to finish his bottle but rarely did because he would be lulled to sleep. I realized that he loved hearing his songs but I needed something to add to the beginning of our playlist while he had his bottle. And that became- Wait by Get Set Go. He knows when he hears this song that it’s time for his bottle and that nap time is on the horizon.
Beej’s Playlist:
- Wait– Get Set Go
- Whatever Gets You Through the Night– The Radio (if more bottle time is needed)
- How to Save a Life– The Fray (this kicks off the relaxing period)
- Chasing Cars– Snow Patrol
- A Cold Wind Blows Through Your Door– Bill Ricchini
- The Story– Brandi Carlile
- Keep Breathing– Ingrid Michaelson
- Breathe in Breathe Out– Mat Kearney
- Grace– Kate Havnevik
