....to follow up on that last post..

This evening as our frazzled brains were about to shut down completely, I discovered, quite by accident, that Daniel finds endless amusement in hearing people say "whoop! whoop!" and seeing things tossed about. He has a purple toy hippo that I tossed in the air, accompanied by "whoop! whoop!", which sent him into gales of laughter. Hearing a baby laugh like that is the best sound in the world. It made up for (almost) the sleep issues of the last 3 days. We spent a good twenty minutes throwing everything we could find in the air (toys, rags, pillows) and generally acting like monkeys (except we didn't fling feces, but I bet he would have liked that, too), making him laugh so hard he got the hiccups.
