In the Beginning

Happy Hump Day

Last Wednesday we had some laughs courtesy of our senior citizens.

(Yeah, yeah, I know I'm one of those.)

This week I'm going back to the beginning...we're going to look at - and laugh with - babies.

I'm going to be honest here and admit I've got to put this post together in a hurry.  Just found out I'm going out of town first thing in the morning. But I think there are enough laughs packed in these two videos to do the trick.  If you need an extra boost, watch them twice.

If you can listen to these guys and not join in the laughter...well, then you're at work listening on headphones. 




This guy does a solo but you've got to love this giggle.



Admit it. You laughed, didn't you?

 I'm staying with my baby theme for your "aw" picture, too.  If you don't feel an "aw" right away, take another look that the expressions on these two faces.



Did you make it?  Over the mid-week hump? Excellent.
My work here is done.

Okay, I've gotta run.  I'm leaving early and will be gone all day so I'll be a little late coming around to visit, but I'll get there.

Quotes of the Day:

Did you know babies are nauseated by the smell of a clean shirt? - Jeff Foxworthy

“Babies don't need a vacation but I still see them at the beach. I'll go over to them and say, 'What are you doing here, you've never worked a day in your life!” - Stephen Wright

“Fo' Gawd, Miss Scarlett! We's got ter have a doctah. Ah- Ah- Miss Scarlett, Ah doan know nuthin' 'bout bringin' babies. -Prissy” ― Margaret Mitchell, Gone With the Wind

I love the videos! Nothing beats the sound of babies laughing. Thanks for the awwws. :)

Stacy McKitrick said...

Who knew ripping paper could be so funny? Thanks for the laughs.

Maria Zannini said...

You can't help but laugh with a laughing baby.

I liked the quiet thumb-sucking quad baby though. He was amused, but laid back.

Alex J. Cavanaugh said...

The Foxworthy quote is awesome! That explains it.

Isis Rushdan said...

That was awesome! I really want to know what the dad in the first video was doing. Since my husband is in Afghanistan I have been recording our infant all the time for him. I'm definitely trying the paper, lol.

Carol Kilgore said...

My faves today were the one little baby's laugh and Jeff Foxworthy's comment :)

LD Masterson said...

Angela - Glad you liked it.

LD Masterson said...

Linda G. - I agree. Nothing in the world.

LD Masterson said...

Stacy - I rip paper all the time. Must be missing something.

LD Masterson said...

Maria - So true. Few things are more contagious

LD Masterson said...

Alex - Also by the smell of clean bedding in their cribs.

LD Masterson said...

Isis - That's great that you're recording your baby for him. May God see you reunited soon.

LD Masterson said...

Carol - Ah, you liked the soloist. That was a great giggle.

Yes, those darling babies made me giggle too. Such fun!

LD Masterson said...

Patricia - Glad you enjoyed them. Thanks for coming by.

Those were great videos. Laughing is contagious, especially giggles from babies.

Loved the quotes, too. Stephen Wright is one of my favorite comedians.

LD Masterson said...

Maryann - I'm glad you enjoyed them.

momto8 said...

and I love your quotes!! My husband listens to Stephen Wright all the time in the car and comes home and repeats this jokes...always good for a laugh!

Tara Tyler said...

LD Masterson said...

Annmarie - I think I need to get to know Stephen Wright better. He's a funny guy.

LD Masterson said...

Tara - Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed.

Mike Keyton said...

I'm with Foxworthy. Our son didn't like a clean face. The moment he was born and held up he pissed all over my wife's face. I'm saving that story up for his wedding day

LD Masterson said...

Mike - Our son got my husband in the eye during his first diaper change.
