And the song "For Once in My Life," by Stevie Wonder - I was trying to find songs for his 1-year video, and came across that one. I immediately started bawling. Now it reminds me of him every single time. We dance around the living room to it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-song-that-reminds-you-of-lo#post-1424120 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 11:06:37 +0000 MsLipGloss 1424120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Happy Together (by The Turtles) . . .

The chorus is so sweet: "by the stars and clouds above/we can spend our lives in love/you quit your hesitating Noralee" and this is my fave verse: "we can ramble hand in hand across the grasses of our land /I'll kiss you for each leaf on every tree /We can bring our kids to play where the dry leaves blow today/you quit your hesitating, Noralee" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-song-that-reminds-you-of-lo#post-1423440 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 06:01:29 +0000 rachiecakes 1423440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@meganmp: aw my mom says she sang that to me all the time when I was a baby</p> <p>J was born 8 days before Christmas and I have a good hormonal cry singing along with 'All I want for Christmas is You' on the radio on a daily basis leading up to his birth, lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-song-that-reminds-you-of-lo#post-1423278 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 01:30:06 +0000 lemondrop 1423278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Keane - Somewhere Only We Know (the Winnie the Pooh song) it was on all the time during my commute during my first pregnancy.

It comes on my favorite pandora station a lot, and one day I was singing along with it while LO was sitting in her bouncer next to me and I teared up. Now I sing it to her all the time, it even makes DH emotional now, lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-song-that-reminds-you-of-lo#post-1423089 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 23:35:18 +0000 twinmama 1423089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wagon Wheel by Darius Rucker. 'Hey, Mama Rock Me' :) I dance with a kid on each hip whenever it's on.</p> <p>And James Taylor's You Can Close Your Eyes. I loved when it would come on Pandora in the wee hours of the night when my kiddos were teeny tiny. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-song-that-reminds-you-of-lo#post-1423075 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 23:21:58 +0000 lawbee11 1423075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>"Ho Hey" by the Lumineers.

I bawled my eyes out in the car on the way to my first day back to work a few weeks ago when I heard that song. So dramatic, I know. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-song-that-reminds-you-of-lo#post-1422038 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 19:50:48 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1422038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sing this one to lo every night at bedtime &lt;3 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYmb8aX6oH4" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYmb8aX6oH4</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-song-that-reminds-you-of-lo#post-1422029 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 19:49:46 +0000 Smurfette 1422029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I sing Twinkle Twinkle to her every night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-song-that-reminds-you-of-lo#post-1422025 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 19:49:10 +0000 sunny 1422025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My little one has a song with her name in it so we like that one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-song-that-reminds-you-of-lo#post-1422003 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 19:45:04 +0000 bisous 1422003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We dance to Twist &amp; Shout together all the time! :)</p> <p>A song by Andrew McMahon, Catching Cold, was one I listened to a lot at the end of pregnancy so that reminds me of her, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-song-that-reminds-you-of-lo#post-1421966 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 19:38:42 +0000 Sweet T 1421966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dirt road prayer by Lauren Alaina. When J was a baby, it was my not-so-secret weapon. He could be screaming bloody murder, but would go silent as soon as I turned that song on. Now, I play it for his brother without the same effect. </p> <p>Godspeed by the Dixie Chicks is another. I've play it and sing it for both of my boys. It's such a sweet song. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-song-that-reminds-you-of-lo#post-1421937 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 19:31:33 +0000 cmomma17 1421937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I Will Wait by Mumford and Sons! It was on the radio a lot at the tail end of my pregnancy.

It played again a few weeks later and she kicked again.

I sang it in the shower connnnstantly when I was pregnant (and thought I sounded awesome, obviously), and once she was born, it's just stuck and is now her lullaby song. DH jokes that her first words will be from that song. </p> <p>I also still sound awesome. Ha. </p> <p>Taylor Swifts "Don't Ever Grow Up" or whatever it's called always reminds me of LO, but it makes me cry so I don't listen to it that often. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-song-that-reminds-you-of-lo#post-1421562 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 17:11:13 +0000 Ra 1421562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@loveisstrange: Love that song! </p>
