Funny… looking

Today, as I sat quietly watching the NFL Draft as TheMonk and Swee’Pea played with toys, I heard the infectious laugh of little Swee’Pea. I glanced over to see what she was laughing at.

She was laughing at me.

She sat there on the floor (her new trick this week is she can sit up all by herself now), no toys anywhere near her, looking directly at me while laughing her little bootie off.

Not one to pass up a chance to laugh, I joined her on the floor and laughed right back. She thought this was even more hilarious and we had a good back and forth of good old belly laughs until she finally got tired of laughing and scooted away to the nearest toy.

I went back to watching the draft while trying not to think about how just looking at me is enough to make my daughter crack up.

  1. I guess that’s better than Baby Boy trying to rip my shirt off to get at my boobs… At least you’re funny. I’m food.

  2. Wait until the two of them gang up on you and laugh at you.

    Once, when The PB & The J were younger, still in cribs as a matter of fact, we had put them to bed and The PB decided to throw her bear out of the crib. I bent over to get it (both of them watching me) and as I rose up I hit my head… hard.

    They both laughed their asses off…

    If it weren’t such a cute laugh, I probably would have sworn like a sailor…

  4. Maybe she was laughing that the Saints got Bush, no?

    Seriously, my favorite sound in the world is the babies’ laughter.

  5. Maybe she was laughing because you were watching the draft.

    Wait – no, then she was laughing at me too.

  6. Oh I love it when they first start cracking up on their own! It’s the best!

    And at least she looks at you and laughs. That shows you make her happy. And it’s way better than looking at you and crying!

  8. I know it may not seem like it, but this game just gets better and better! Nothing cheers me up more than seeing my kid laughing at the sight of me!
