gurgle · 24 February 2010, 22:46

We got a decent deal on a used crib from someone on Craigslist (we had a nice family outing that night — we got the crib and then went out for dinner), and I put it together today in Josh’s room. I attached the mobile that we used back when Caleb was a baby, and I put Josh in it to see how he’d like the mobile. He made some very happy gurgles at it. I never thought about it at the time, but Caleb didn’t really do much in the way of gurgles at this age. He would clearly be happy, and soundlessly smile, but Josh seems to vocalize more. In fact, he is quite noisy during sleep transitions, making it a little nerve-wracking to be in the same room when he’s sleeping — you think he’s stirring and starting to wake up, so you lie there, tensed, listening for him to sound hungry or distressed so you can pick him up, when in fact, he’s just making some noise and is about to fall right back asleep.
