Not ashamed to admit it. She's 8 weeks old and we got actual laughs out of her today instead of just smiles. My wife and I had been trying everything the last week and when it finally happened I just lost it. Tears everywhere. Never experienced anything like that before. This parenting thing is wild.
Those early laughs are pure magic. You'll remember that day forever, and it's awesome that you're present enough to catch it.
Eight weeks and she's already laughing? That's incredible, man. Those moments are what it's all about. No shame in those tears at all.
That first real laugh hits different. You and your wife worked for that moment and it was worth every second. Moments like that are the best part of this whole thing.
8 weeks is so early for real laughs, man. That's awesome. I remember when my daughter first did it - totally different from the random smiles. Congrats on the milestone.
This is the good stuff right here. Everything else - the sleepless nights, the diaper blowouts - it all makes sense after a moment like that.

Not weird at all. I sobbed when my son first grabbed my finger intentionally. These moments hit different when they're YOUR kid.
