AJ's sense of humor has been coming out more and more these past few weeks, and it is the most fun to watch it develop. A week ago I took his toy hammer and taught him how to "test" the reflexes in my knee like they do in the cartoons, and he remembers every time he sees the toy hammer in his toy bin and rushes over with the hammer to pound on my knee while I jerk it around in the air and we giggle. He also once dipped his hand in the water in the bath tub to sprinkled it on my cheek and loved my silly reaction, so he will remember and do that from time to time in the tub, which always sends him into giggle fits. Joe and AJ have started to develop a shared sense of humor as well and have their own little inside jokes.
The person who can get AJ to giggle the loudest and the hardest by far, though, is his nanny, K. I think AJ has a bit of a crush on K., because she can do something small and silly and he will go into gales of laughter, but when anyone else does the same thing immediately after, they just get a "that's not funny" look. K. once got AJ to scream with laughter by taking a sippy cup and tilting it back and forth while saying "tick-tock, tick-tock...woah!" You would have thought the guy was watching Seinfeld do live stand-up comedy from his reaction. It is neat that they have this connection, though, because it makes it clear that AJ adores her.
