Z's first groove
Today I played some music on the laptop to entertain me while feeding Z. I noticed he was happily bouncing in his high chair, and then noticed he seemed to be kind of bouncing in sync with the music.
Curious, I turned down the music. He stopped bouncing, looked nonplussed, and then got mildly fussy. I turned the music back up, and he smiled and started bouncing again.
A few more repeats of this experiment convinced me that he was, indeed, grooving.
Joyce has previously noticed that Z likes Mary Crowell and Michelle Dockrey, but this was the first confirmed observation of grooving to a beat.
So what was Z's first groove? "Party Machine," by Bruce Haack (a largely unknown but incredibly innovative figure in electronic music).

Low low low, like Kurtis Blow.
Down down down, like James Brown.
Haack attack is back. Bruce Haack, anti-wack.
Wow, I need to make some new Z icons - he's grown up so much!
