More Laughter :-)

When I want to get the pups some more exercise, sometimes I'll sit at the bottom of the steps and play fetch with them up and down the stairs. Tonight Ava very much enjoyed this. I sat her in the Bumbo seat and when the pups would go out of view (up the stairs) she would look and wait and then when they came back down she would smile and laugh. Kind of like a big game of peek-a-boo. Very fun. :) :) :) :)

The Beginning of Laughter

I really can't believe how much and how fast Ava is growing and changing. She is kind of playing in her jumper thing, although her balance with sitting straight up is still not great. She reaches for things and holds things but doesn't really know what to do once she has something. Sometimes she cries out of boredom, just needing some Mommy play time, something to hold, or something new to look at. She has recently started laughing a little bit! The recording I got is on my digital camera (rather than the video camera) so it's not very clear but still fun to watch. She gets the hiccups somewhere near the end which cuts off her little laugh sometimes.
