So, while my dad was holding him I jingled the lion and had it "kiss" Brodie 4-5 times before pulling it away. Brodie did a HUGE smile and then that adorable baby laugh that sounds like they are gasping and chuckling. I was SOOO surprised because I didn't think he could socially smile or laugh this young. Maybe my child is just doing these things a little earlier? There is no doubt in my (or Nick's or my parent's) mind that he is smiling at specific sounds or circumstances now instead of just gas. I don't mind the social smiles/laughing at all...makes me sooooooooooo happy to see him reacting more to us!
Here is a picture I snapped right after the laugh. He is dang cute isn't he?

social smiles and laughs depend, i think, on the personality of your child. tristan was super sensitive as a baby and didn't laugh till around 8 weeks, while samuel is a social little thing and started smiling for real right around 5 weeks and laughing soon after. i LOVE that smiles are the first big milestone, they're just the best :)
