Dude. I was doing that stupid thing where you make a popping sound with your mouth and he just LOST IT. Biggest smile, actual laugh. My wife wasn't even in the room so I had to get her to come see him do it again. Best feeling ever. I know it's probably not a real laugh yet according to all the articles but I don't even care. Made my whole week.
Yo, that's huge! The popping sound is a classic for a reason. Three months and already making memories, that's what it's all about.
That's the stuff right there. Those first laughs hit different, man. Congrats on being the one who made it happen even if your wife missed it this time.
That first real laugh is absolutely life changing. I still remember my son's first one at like 16 weeks and I must have tried that same mouth pop thing a hundred times after to get it again. You're doing great man.
The popping sound is gold. My daughter went crazy for that too around that age. Now she's 3 and I've moved on to making weird animal noises. The bar for dad entertainment is honestly pretty low and I love it.

Dude wait until he laughs at actual jokes or funny situations. That's when you realize you're creating a tiny human with their own sense of humor. Cherish these simple moments because the popping sound trick has a pretty short shelf life haha.
