Of all the video snips I've posted here to date, I wish the most that this one had sound.
No other child on this good Earth has the magical laugh with which my son is imbued. Perhaps it's for the best, really. If not exposed to it gently, over time, one might just die from such an unexpected inundation of cuteness.
Honest.
Perhaps, once we get our taxes done, I can convince my wife to let me get the new 5 megapixel camera that I've had my eyes on for the past couple months... It takes video with sound...
(And I feel justified, since the Nikon I have is about five years old, only takes 2 MP pictures and just recently passed the 4,100th picture taken on it. Gawdstrewth, man!! Giv'er a rest, a'ready!!)

You don't even have to hear it to be able to imagine the beauty of his laugh.
Love your blog. And, congrats on the new baby and tell your wife she's my hero. At home? No drugs? Wow.
Years from now Declan is probably going to be getting married; I suspect he'll have one of the best ever video montages shown of him at the reception (poor, lucky guy).

Yes! A new camera with sound! Grand idea. I can just imagine that little belly laugh.

Ya, I'm with the others. I was laughing at his cuteness and could imagine his laugh without hearing it. What a cutey!

So you've managed both a pithy video snip AND a pithy commentary, despite those sandbagging demurrals of your previous entry. Cheeky monkey.
Declan just makes you laugh out loud with him.

I'm amazed that you got that many seconds of video without showing his whopperjoggy. Or, whipperjiggy at that age.
