James' first laugh

On Friday James laughed for the first time. It is a Navajo tradition that the person who makes a baby laugh first has to cook a huge meal for the family ( and in Navajo that means brothers, sisters, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and any relation). They usually kill a sheep or goat for the occasion. We half-way adopted the tradition- but we just had our neighbors over for dessert. We want to keep up the tradition with our other kids too- but we might just do root beer floats next time!
