McKay's music

We had stake conference today, and it was a rodeo with McKay. To make it short, we started in the chapel but McKay didn't want to stay still, so we moved to the Relief Society room with the rest of the cowboys. There was a live video feed and audio to a TV, on one of those huge rolling TV carts.

McKay was crawling around and then he spotted the TV stand. He crawled over there as fast as he could and starts banging on the bottom tray. Michael goes to get him. We finally let him free again he goes racing right up there again. This times he climbs on it. I wasn't too worried at this point, because there wasn't much noise.

He crawled all over the bottom shelf and then sat up and looked at us like: "Aren't you coming to get me?" and thinking what he could do next. Then he starts flapping his arms and moving his feet. That's when he discovered he could make a scratching sound with his foot -- and his face just lit up.

I still safety pin his socks together -- weird, I know -- and sometimes the safety pin gets left in one of the socks. That is how he was making his music. I started laughing too hard, and, because McKay had been successful, Michael had to hustle up back in front of everybody to get him. Oh, what a funny little boy.
