Music to Ease the Pain

Tonight while my husband was out of the house enjoying a movie night with the boys, I enjoyed having the computer to myself.

Those who know my husband, know that this is a big deal... because when he is home he alway wants on the computer.

I spent the night using my time wisely. I had asked for and received ITunes gift cards for Xmas (thanks Mom). I have been using these to download songs that I would like to listen to during labor. I realize that as things progress and labor becomes more and more painful, I will most likely care less about the music. But, during all that early stuff that I hope to endure at home, music might make a big difference.

So, the point of this post (and there is a point) is I wanted to give you a small sampling of the songs I have chosen to entertain myself and give you the opportunity to suggest some songs.

Now, some might say I have terrible taste in music (yes my finger is pointing at you Mrs. Knight), but I prefer to say eclectic. So, any and all suggestions are welcome.

These are a few I have already chosen.

You Can Close Your Eyes - James Taylor
At Last - Etta James-
God Bless the Child - Billie Holiday
Love Stoned - Justin Timberlake
Godspeed - Dixie Chicks
Hips Don't Lie - Shakira
What a Wonderful World - Louis Armstrong
Baby Mine - Bette Midler
Bye Bye Blackbird - Sammie Davis Jr.

Let me know what you think would be a soothing, fun, or appropriate tune for the impending arrival of Junior!
