No more monkeys

Today Bennett finally let out his first audible laugh. A full fledged giggle. What was it that prompted such a wonderful milestone His mother's constant smiles and baby talk? His father's wit? One of his many colorful toys?
Nope. Jackson...jumping on the bed.
Jackson has always had a bad habit of jumping on the bed (one that I am working to eliminate). So what's a mom to do when her new baby thinks the funniest thing in his life so far is his older brother jumping on the bed?
Naturally, I made Jackson keep jumping just to hear Bennett laugh over and over.
I'll work on breaking the habit tomorrow.

That is so funny. I love thinking of Bennett cracking up at Jackson. Aww...cute brothers. Good luck breaking that jumping habit :)

Maybe we can funnel all the jumping to the air mattress downstairs.
Ah well, choose your battles. You should pull up a recording program next time and catch Bennett's laugh!

i definitely would have let the jumping slide if it was making my baby laugh!!

I would love to hear that laugh. I think that is so cute that his first full fledged laugh was at Jackson jumping. I'm sure Jackson will be a great source of entertainment for him for a long time. Although I can't imagine his first laugh not being at his father's wit!

How wonderful you have your two little boys to comfort and entertain each other. They are both just dear. BTW, got your nice note today. Thanks!
