Josie's Humor

It is so much fun to watch the birth of humor in a little person! Josie now laughs a little mischievous laugh at so many things -- a giant shoe on her foot, a burp (yep, potty humor at 14 months),
taking off her diaper, getting chased by mom, funny noises I make up for the Noisy Bunny book. She leaned in to kiss me recently and burped. Yep, funniest thing in the universe if you ask Josie is to pretend to kiss, and burp instead. It helps if mom laughs uproariously also, which I did. The list of words she knows but doesn't yet say is growing: brush teeth, brush hair, put on shoes, go for a walk, go outside, take a bath, go to the car, listen to the dog. In fact, whenever she hears dogs she joins in --Rrarr rarr. Too bad that's also the sound she makes at cats and birds, but we're working on the distinctions! Too bad, too, that not only am I "mamma'', so are the other two people who take care of her most frequently, her nanny and my friend Brooke. Again, we're working on the distinctions. New photos from her first birthday, the park, and assorted fund moments of late. Hang on, it's a wonderful, bumpy ride!!
