For the longest time, Devin wanted to play the drums (amongst other musical instruments). When he was a little over two, I bought him these plastic drums where you can also play in the bath tub. Then slowly, my pots & pans started to show up as part of his ensemble. And recently he discovered that a drum set can't do without the cymbals, so now the lids to the pots & pans made their appearances as well. This past Sunday, he will probably never forget...he got to play the "grown-up" drum set at church. Orlando, the drummer from the praise & worship team gave Devin his drum sticks and invited him up on the stage to play after church...wow, he was ecstatic!
Playing the grown up drums!
He sure looks like he know what he was doing...
...definitely not bad for a beginner!
On the way home, he fell asleep with the drum sticks in his hands...he was so cute. We were looking to buy him a drum set (the electronic ones so it's not so loud) the week before...so, what did we do?!
We bought him his own drum set...
...and not the electronic ones!
Yes, they are pretty loud.
We should have bought our neighbors some earplugs, but so far so good. We told Devin not to play too loud & only at certain hours. Andrew point it out that it's like getting him a Porsche & told him he could only drive 50 mph...But Devin seems to be ok with it and he is just loving the drum set!
