ROCK OUT BABY!!!!

We always knew- Hailyn had rhythem since the day she was born- she always gave us the two fingers down 'rock on' symbol, and she LOVES loud music- when she would start crying in the car, we threw on some AKON, or Justin Timberlake, or Avril (she LOVES Avril) and she'll start talking- we call it 'singing' along. She loves heavy beats- well, now this scientific study proves what we already had a hunch about...
Newborns' brain activity was being monitered while heavy beats were playing and here is the 'meat' of the study...

When "metrically-unimportant portions" of the beat were silenced, nothing much changed among the auditory-related activity in the brain, Honing said. But when the rhythm was disturbed, particularly by omitting the downbeat, the infant brain responded with an error signal: An expectation for a rhythmic pattern was not met.

"A baby's auditory system is working the same way as an adult's, in that it is always making predictions," Winkler said. If the prediction is incorrect, an error signal helps gauge "how much you are off the actual target," he said.
This picture PROVES it!

This is her auditioning for American Idol when the CD skipped- watch out (this was the day after we brought her home from the hospital)
All we have to say is keep rockin' on Hailyn (we know you will)and we'll keep playing Pink, Avril, Alycia Keyes, and whomever else you feel like singin to!

Hailyn needs your votes!!!
