Leah's first laugh

We have adopted the Navajo tradition of celebrating a babies first laugh with a "First Laugh Party." In the Navajo tradition who ever makes the baby laugh first has to throw and finance a huge party for all of the clan with a big dinner etc. Also the party has to be the day or day after the baby laughs. So Spencer made Leah laugh first, he has been trying hard to make her laugh since she was born because he really wanted to throw the party. We didn't have a huge party or slaughter any sheep, but it was a lot of fun.We kept it pretty small but invited our neighbors the Dee's and our friend Kelsey.

One game Spencer planned was the "clean up the spit up" game.  He splashed water on the floor and we all had to wipe it up, very appropriate for a baby party.

We also had Teddy Bear bowling and hide the Teddy Bear and a Teddy Bear treat made out of cinnamon rolls (Spencer really likes Teddy Bears).  It is a fun tradition- everyone should adopt it!
