First of many Firsts
Noelle is very fond of eating. Always has been. Her chubby little cheeks bear testimony to this fact. From the time she was a couple of weeks old she would randomly grin while nursing. This caused her problems because she couldn’t exactly continue nursing while grinning so it would be “
” <nurse nurse nurse> “” And repeat. Tonight she did something new. She had fallen asleep while nursing before bedtime but I wanted to make sure she was full so let her continue to nurse for a while in her sleep. She interrupted her placid suckling with a gigantic grin and the most adorable sounding baby chuckles you’ve ever heard. It was contagious and had me laughing with her. While too early to tell for sure it did sound somewhat reminiscent of her Dad’s wonderfully vibrant and contagious laugh. I hope she has gotten his laugh along with his features, feet and hands!
