Eli Singing and Playing the Piano

Eli Playing the piano and singing along with it. I frankly was astounded.

Eli playing music from his exersaucer and trying to mimic it on the piano. It takes him a moment to notice that it has stopped, but he starts it up again and starts playing the piano again.

And yes, we know the piano is out of tune.
