Genevieve Playing

Sunday night Genevieve discovered that the toys on her bouncer chair are in fact toys and that they make noise if she plays with them. She was sitting in her bouncer chair and was kicking her legs when one of her feet hit the block that has a bell in it. She paused for a minute and stared at the block as if to say "Did I make it make that sound?" She then proceeded to very carefully move one foot up and hit the block again. Sure enough that was the cause of the sound. This was then followed by several more kicks to the block and one happy baby watching in amazement as her foot made the block make noise. This was the first time Genevieve played with her toys but it surely will not be the last.

Later the same night I was playing with Genevieve by showing her a stuffed toy with a mirror as his belly. She stared at her reflection for a few moments and then smiled very big and laughed for the first time. She then paused again and laughed again. Her laugh was soft and sweet. I loved hearing her laugh and can't wait to hear it again.

Here is a short video of Genevieve playing with the block on her bounce toy.
