Things that Entertain Claire

Claire is such a happy baby.  Seriously.  If she's crying, then she's either hungry or tired.  Or both.  Most of the time she's content to watch what's going on around her, but there are some weird things that make her smile or laugh on a regular basis. I can't find a common theme, can you?

  • Blowing raspberries (thanks to my mom for that one)
  • Fishy face (opening and closing your mouth without making a sound)
  • Brushing soft things across her nose/chin
  • Dropping soft things onto her chest (burp rags, socks, toys etc.)
  • Looking away and then looking at her suddenly and gasping loudly
  • Touching her feet
  • Removing her socks
  • Saying, "Nom nom nom"  
  • Watching someone eat
  • Her dolly/blanket toy
  • Seeing mom or dad after an absence of at least 15 minutes
  • Peeing while her diaper is off
I have a story about that last one.  When we were pregnant, we found what seemed like an awesome deal on diapers at a Black Friday sale.  76 diapers for $10.  Woohoo!  We bought 4 boxes of size 2 diapers and congratulated ourselves on saving a bunch of money.  We started using those diapers this week and they are pretty much garbage.  So Claire has been having a lot more accidents lately.  When her diaper is wet and uncomfortable, she likes  to "hold it" until mom or dad go to change the diaper.  As soon as we get it off of her, she pees... and she laughs.  Like, EVERY time.  I think she enjoys the look of horror on our faces.  But she's laughing and smiling and being ridiculously adorable so it's hard to be mad at her.  Besides, she's a  baby.  She's can't possibly be doing it on purpose?  Right?  

She's too cute to stay mad for very long
