We have laughing!

So another big milestone. Both girls laughed for the first time within the same week. For N it was last week during the day. I was dangling a toy over her head and she let out the cutest little laugh. I thought surely I was hearing things as I did not expect that. I tried again and sure enough she laughed for a second time!

Last night while Papa was watching the girls, K laughed while looking at her sister. Now I know how S feels when he misses the girls during the day but all in all I thought it was fair of the girls to give each of us their first laughs.

I'll try and capture that on video when it starts happening more frequently. As of now, either girl has yet to laugh again but that doesn't keep S and I from making fools again as we try to get them to.

Here are some recent pictures:

Tummy time for the girls. They are getting better and better at holding their heads up for longer periods of time.

Just in case S is bored at work.....

...here are some pictures to pass the time.


N and K have actually been acknowledging each other lately. S and I will sit them facing each other and eventually they will lock eyes and take turns smiling at each other. I wasn't able to capture a smile this go around but they did have a pretty intense staring contest.

As I sit staring at our blog I'm left wondering...where is the aimless talking that is promised by the title? So here it goes.....I counted all my shirts hanging in the closet that have stains and do you know how many there are? Five...yes, FIVE. The worst part is two of them are maternity shirts I borrowed from a friend (Woosterweester, you're the lucky winner of a brand spankin' new white tank top and brown tank top my friend, :embarrassed:) so they must be replaced. The others I will eventually toss when I can actually fit into my old shirts. I don't know how many times one must spill salsa or eggs on oneself before they will learn to be more careful when they eat. I wish I could blame it all on the pregnancy because a woman's balance is off during that time but shamefully I believe most of those incidents have taken place more recently.

This has been your aimless talk for the day.

But since most of you check this blog to see pictures of the girls (S, get back to work!!) here you go:

K playing along to Willie Nelson


K and Mommy laughing at Papa who has successfully gotten us to laugh by being ridiculously goofy (did you get that?). Yes, Mommy looks silly but she can't help it...Papa is hysterical.
