First laugh, thumb sucking and other things

Today Lauren is 3 months old, I can't believe it! For awhile I've been anxiously awaiting her first laugh. I remember Aubrey laughing at 3 months, probably because it was at Thanksgiving, so it is easy to remember, but I don't remember when Cameron first laughed. Anyway, I knew it would be soon because she would smile so big and catch her breath, but no noise would come out. So, this afternoon at faith family she was on my lap and I was playing with her feet. I put them up to her cheeks and then she let out her first laugh. She even giggled, not just one little laugh. I love baby laughs so much. Talk about pure joy.

In other good news, it has been a week since Cameron has stopped sucking his thumb and he continues to be thumb free. I think I may have negated the good he's doing for his teeth because my bribe for him was candy in the mornings and after nap if he didn't suck his thumb. I've checked on him multiple times and he hasn't had it in his mouth. He is taking longer to fall asleep sometimes and he has been somewhat sad about it, but since we talked to him about it the first time, he hasn't sucked his thumb since. If only potty training would be that easy...

One last thing, Aubrey and Cameron have been playing fairly well together this weekend and we've heard a lot of laughter from them. Their laughs are contagious and I have actually laughed out loud just by listening to them laugh. God is so good to have blessed us with 3 healthy, beautiful, fun-loving children who some day soon will all be laughing together!
