It must take sleep to make giggles


Saturday night into Sunday morning Angela slept from 10:30-5:30 ( a new record) and then until 9:00 am. Wonderful. Then unexpectedly she fell asleep around 3:30pm for a "nap" or so I thought, only hours passed and she never fully woke up, only a few times to eat and then she'd doze back off. 10:00pm approached and I was fearful she was going to wake up and not go to bed. So I rushed off to bed and she ended up staying asleep only waking up to feed, but then finally waking up at 5:30am when her nose was stuffy and she couldn't breathe (a frequent occurence lately that is rather frustrating for all parties involved).

Well, today she was gurgling A LOT and squealing and letting out little "ha's" here and there which was somewhat new, until I had her on her swing talking to her and all of a sudden she let out a nice long chuckily giggle. Then after we got back from grocery shopping I was tickling her under her chin and got to show John a few more chuckles - so exciting!

She's also been batting at her toys more often and starting to make the connection between her brain and her limbs: "hey, I can actually use these things to touch stuff."
