The other night I had Clara in her pjs and a swaddle but she wasn't tired yet. I had her resting in my lap, leaning against my propped up legs, facing me, bottle feeding. I was absent-mindedly looking at my phone and her foot was near my mouth so I pretend to bite it, and she thought that was funny. She started sticking her foot near my mouth on purpose and every time I'd pretend to kind of growl and bite it and she kept smiling. Soon she wasn't eating anymore and pulled away from the bottle to watch me.
Then I held her feet against my forehead so that her swaddled legs covered my face, and I'd pull her legs down quickly and shout "boo!" She was laughing so hard! Sometimes I wouldn't shout anything; I'd just pull her feet down *just* enough to see my eyes, not my whole face, and she'd grin and grin like this was some insanely clever inside joke she and I had that no one else had ever thought of. I kept alternating between "boo!" and peeking out at her for a long time while she laughed harder and harder. Melted my heart, she's so cute.
