Laughter!

On Friday night, I FINALLY got to hear Erik laugh. It was sooooo cute. He did a belly laugh when my friend, Renee, was holding him. He laughed out loud twice. I just love that baby boy. Also, I was holding him on my lap and he was babbling. So, I looked him in the eye and started saying "Mama, mama" making sure my lips emphasized the "M" in mama. After a few seconds of studying my lips, Erik began mimicking me and he started saying "mama". He seems to be doing more and more as time passes. We just really have to start working on his muscles. He has almost no muscle tone. He can't hold his head up too well and he doesn't sit up or roll over (he is 15 mos. old). But, I showed Claire (Erik's mommy) some excersize's to try and it seems like they may be working. So, Erik is doing well and hopefully he'll begin to catch up. I love my little man:0)
