The first laugh

Penelope laughed today! She was on the changing table, which seems to be one of her favorite places. We were doing the standard smiles and baby flirting that she has gotten so good at, and then she giggled! I called Jason right away but he didn't believe me, but I heard it and I marked Penelope's calender with the first laugh sticker. She hasn't done it again today but maybe she is waiting for Jason to come home.

Buckets o' Smiles

Well, there is no doubt about it now. Penelope is definitely smiling. This has actually been going on for a few weeks now (Katie marked the "official" first smile on Aug. 14th), but now it has gotten to the point where there are frequent smiles every day. Penelope appears to be happiest on the changing table, but we now get smiles throughout the day. That's not to say that there are no more fussy fits, but now they are broken up with a few smile sessions.
