In Case You Haven't Heard it for Yourself............

Every night we have a little routine just before bedtime. In addition to the usual bottle, bath and book that most infants part-take in, we go through a dramatic emotional roller coaster! Not long after we start yawning and rubbing our eyes, we usually start finding anything mom does absolutely hysterical! From making fish faces, to train noises, to simply raising our hands above our heads.....we spend 1-2 minutes in body shaking laughter. Then, just as quickly as it started, the giggling fit ends, giving way to the hair raising crying and screaming. In fact, the transition occurs so quickly, that it often takes a minute or two for mom and dad distinguish between the sounds! The beauty of the routine.......about 2 minutes of unconsolable wailing and its lights out....no more peeps to be made!

Since Gamma and Pop Pop aren't lucky enough to hear the laughter in person, last night I filmed part one of our nightly emotional roller coaster...let me know if you want me to include the crying next time!
