Belly Laughs & Singing

What a Joy Andrew was today. Such a silly boy. The past couple of days, Andrew has been standing in front of Daddy sitting on his bench and lifting up his shirt and staring at Robert's belly in amazement. Then Robert this morning poked Andrew in the belly and started to giggle. Later when we were playing with Andrew on the blanket he thought it was funny to roll around on the blanket and look up at me until I tickled his belly. Well let me just tell you that the largest belly laugh came out of him. He would then pretend like he was rolling away and then he would roll back looking up at me again and wait with this smerk on his face until I put my hands up in the air to get ready to tickle him again. Belly laugh after Belly laugh....such a funny boy he was today. Daddy got into the tickling a little later and was laying with Andrew on the blanket facing Andrew and they would just look at each other until Robert would tickle him again. Andrew got such a kick out of the whole game and we had just as much fun with him as he did with us. We were all laughing hard.



As we were walking around the building again today, Andrew was singing some sort of tune to us. We've been singing to him lately so I think he is just immitating us. WE think he is singing the Sesame Street song. Such a cutie. So we were all singing and humming along together.



Andrew's walking is improving more and more each day. We've been playing the game, "Come to Mama or Come to Papa" and we stand further and further apart to see how far he can walk on his own. His confidence is building as well. He walked far off of our blanket and into the chest high dandilions to Andrew as we were following him close behind. He's been enjoying this game because after he reaches Papa or Mama we pick him up, give him a kiss and toss him in the air.
