Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix - Phoenix

2009 album from the French Electro-Rockers. Born out of restlessness and a steady hunt for inspiration, Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix is a career-defining album filled with the band's signature melding of synthetics and organics, sharp, danceable rhythms, infectious choruses with a considerable dose of aural panache and candy-colored pop sensibilities.

Oh my little ducky you’re the one that makes nighttime oh so fun…

Well it has almost been two months and Maizey has grown out of all of her newborn sleepers and it’s time pack them up and move on. One of my favorite things so far, has been how snuggly she is once I get her all cleaned up and in her sleeper. I already find myself missing how small our little bundle of joy was, but longing to see what is next!
