Funny Bun-ny

My Bun, it seems, has a little bit of a ham inside - a ham sandwich, you could say. This past month, he has really been growing not only longer and heavier (OMG so heavy), but also funnier. Seriously, the little dude has a sense of humour, and is already starting to play for the laughs.

One day recently, he stuck his tongue way out, and I laughed, tapping it with a fingertip, and asked him what that was about. It was kind of funny, like a baby Gene Simmons. So he did it again. And yah, I laughed again. So he would not stop sticking it way out there for two whole days. It's a Canadian winter, kid! Not worth it for the giggles! At least he didn't lick his stroller with that thing.

He is ticklish now, too, and loves getting tickled or snuggled or zerberted, busting out the most awesome of baby giggles. A silly face? Giggles. A silly voice? Peals of delighted laughter. Peek-a-boo? Squeals and chuckles.

A week or so ago, he saw Pumpkinpie enter the room and lit up as he always does in her presence. She ;laughed at something, and The Bun, positively transported by this, began to laugh along with her, causing her to laugh harder, setting him off into gales of laughter. The two of them were at it for a good couple of minutes. I thought that someone was going to have to write my last blog post for me after I died of the cuteness in some sort of cardiac explosion. (Of course, Pumpkinpie being a goofball of high order in her own right, now tries to jolly The Bun out of any kind of unhappiness by busting out the most stupid-sounding fake laugh you've ever heard - it's kind of painful, but she's working so hard on becoming a great big sister, I can't complain.)

Heck, the baby laughter is so addictive, such crack for a mom, this mom, that he's got even me playing to his laughter now, because when he is on, he is so on. So today? My face hurts and I may have re-blog-name him Chuckles. God, it's a good thing I had the tubal while they were in there, because this kid is making my ovaries ache with longing, and he came from there not long ago.
