Laughing

So we were in Target and Mikey was having a fit! I reached on the shelf to get this little elephant rattle to try to keep him quiet. He started starring at this elephant and all of a sudden let out this loud laugh! It was the cutest thing ever! I have been trying to get him to do it again but he doesn't have it figured out yet. Im sure he has no clue how the laugh happened, but I loved it!

Mikey sleeping a little more

Mikey is finally sleeping in his crib all by himself! We have been putting him in his crib for about 3 weeks and he seems to like it. I just let him cry for about 10 min and then he is fast asleep. Another cool thing... sleeping now for 4-5 hrs at a time. I am loving that! I think it helped to get him into a routine. About 8:30 every night we go into wind down mode... bath, bottle, read a story then BAM!! Out like a light! Well maybe not that fast. It does take a little bit more work on my part but totally worth having him put himself to sleep instead of me.

So little Mikey is smiling now and it is the coolest thing ever!! It makes those sleepless nights totally worth it! Mike was up all night with him last night and this morning he was laying on his chest and they were both staring at each other and Mikey smiled at Mike like 4 times. I told Mike that I didn't care how tired he was that the smile just makes you forget about it and your heart melt.
