Kaela Laughs!

Our sweet girl laughed for the first time on Thursday. Andy and I were sitting in the living room, and I made some silly noise and Kaela laughed. One, short little laugh, but it was so cute - adorable! She's been making some little "pre-laugh" noises the past week or two, so we knew it was coming. I'm glad we both heard her...she's always smiling, so it's fun to hear her laugh now too.

Yesterday, I was sitting on the couch feeding Kaela. When I sat her up to burp her, Christopher came over and leaned on the couch right beside her. Hoping she'd laugh so he could hear her, I started smiling and making more silly noises - and she laughed! Christopher thought it was great. He had such a big smile on his face.

Today, Christopher was playing with his car on the floor in the living room, and I decided to sit down and join him. Kaela sat on my lap. I picked up a car and pushed it toward Christopher and said "zoom." Kaela just watched. Then Christopher pushed the car back toward me, and as it crashed into my foot, he said "zoom!" Kaela belly laughed and Christopher's eyes lit up as he joined her. We pushed that car back and forth for at least 5 minutes. Each time I pushed it, Kaela just sat there, but every time Christopher pushed it, she belly laughed again. He was bouncing on his knees and laughing so hard, delighted that HE was making Kaela laugh. And so it begins - the entertainer and the entertainee. =) What fun!
