Enough Talking. Let's See Some Hot Multimedia Action

June 22, 2006

Baby! Laughing!*

Like a total crazy drunk person!

Noah Laughing on Vimeo

Who knew? Baby dolls repeatedly plummeting to their deaths are the FUNNIEST THING EVER.

I mean, it's funny, right? He's not going to be sticking their heads on pikes tomorrow or something, right? Should I maybe hide the Nirvana CDs?

*Also! My bra strap!

Like a total crazy homeless person!

Love how he slaps his thigh in anticipation. Also love how he's trying to stop laughing and then totally can't help but start again as soon as the poor (naked?) baby falls... priceless!

whatev, that's the coolest laugh ever.

Posted by: Ceece | June 22, 2006 at 10:49 AM

That was hillarious. I love how he slaps his thigh and also grabs for you. Too cute.

Posted by: Serenity Now | June 22, 2006 at 10:49 AM

That is the funniest baby laugh! I love it!

And I love how he is watching you just as much as he's watching the doll, like he wants to see your reaction or to ask you to keep performing.

Posted by: Kate | June 22, 2006 at 11:02 AM

By the end of the video I was laughing just as hard as Noah.

Classic.

(where did that baby doll come from and how did you come about finding out it makes Noah laugh so hard??)

Posted by: Isabel | June 22, 2006 at 11:03 AM

Total crazy drunk babies and total crazy homeless person was just what I suspected Jason of having to put up with.

I am running home now to start growing another one in my body now! TOO CUTE!!!!!

Posted by: Amanda | June 22, 2006 at 11:05 AM

That was wonderful to wake up to this morning!

Posted by: Allison | June 22, 2006 at 11:06 AM

Dude! That is so cute!! Whenever I'm around a baby and find their 'laughing' point, I repeatedly do whatever it is, over and over, just to hear that sound. Noah's got a bit of an deeper giggle than what I have heard to date - very MISCHIEVIOUS!! LOL ...

Posted by: Starfruit | June 22, 2006 at 11:22 AM

Hee! The kind of laugh you just have to laugh along with!

Posted by: Amber | June 22, 2006 at 11:22 AM

OMG, I love Noah's laugh! My husband and I had to listen to it twice. :)

Now, could you remind me how long I will have to wait for Whoorlito to makes sounds like that?

Posted by: whoorl | June 22, 2006 at 11:29 AM

I don't have sound at work, but it sure was cute to look at.

Note to Noah: DO NOT TRY THIS WITH THE DOG.

Posted by: Lawyerish | June 22, 2006 at 11:37 AM

Oh, Amalah, dahlin' plunging babydolls to their death from two feet is no big deal. We used to throw our dollies, spinning towards the ceiling, before allowing them to crash to the carpet. And then say "oops."

Posted by: Jenny | June 22, 2006 at 11:38 AM

That doll was actually Jason's when HE was a baby, and his mom gave it to us with full instructions on how to use it for maximum laugh potential.

Posted by: Amalah | June 22, 2006 at 11:44 AM

I love when they laugh like the little crazy people they really are. My kids laugh so hard they get the hiccups. That's when I know my job is done!

Posted by: Robyn | June 22, 2006 at 11:45 AM

Kids laugh at the silliest things. You can buy them thousands of dollars worth of toys and yet the little baby doll falling from the top of the gate is the funniest thing ever!!!!
Do you know how hard it was to watch that and NOT laugh with him? (I'm at work...shhhhh) The more you did it, the more tickled he got. I think it was around second 40 or so that he REALLY started laughing. You know, the high pitched giggle followed by the deep laughter that is so genuine.
Thanks for that Amalah! Thanks for sharing.
Now, I dare anyone who saw that to say they are having a bad day.

You have been my Summer Reading and I have enjoyed starting at the beginning of your archives as much as any fun novel. More.

The juxtaposition of this video clip with the entries about the pit you were in as you waited for this laughing little piece of heaven make me wish you could have seen this back then, perhaps in a dream, and KNOWN how good it would be.

Congratulations on making it here (and thank you for sharing it with us).

Posted by: Rachel | June 22, 2006 at 11:47 AM

OMG I look forward everyday to coming to this site and that totally brightened my day. Noah is adorable! LOVE LOVE LOVE

Posted by: Sarah | June 22, 2006 at 11:47 AM

CUUUUTE! Squeee!!

Posted by: jamie | June 22, 2006 at 11:49 AM

What a way to start my morning! I started off okay but by the end of it I was grinning like an idiot...no wonder I get strange looks from my office mate. Noah is so delicious!

Posted by: Christina | June 22, 2006 at 11:55 AM

That LAUGH!

Posted by: bon | June 22, 2006 at 11:56 AM

What a doll...uhhh I am a dumbass....thanks for sharing....reminded me of my daughter's first laughing fit at Eeyore

Posted by: Sarah | June 22, 2006 at 11:59 AM

That is TOO hilarious! And adorable!! I totally forgot what those precious baby laughs sounded like!

Posted by: Robbi | June 22, 2006 at 12:04 PM

He is so adorable. Those are the best belly laughs I have ever heard. Too cute.

Posted by: lolismum | June 22, 2006 at 12:20 PM

Uh-yup... I pretty sure I just ovulated.

Mostest preciousest manical laughter evah!

Posted by: Teri M. | June 22, 2006 at 12:23 PM

Cutest thing ever! I'm sitting at my desk cracking UP! And now my co-workers think I'm a crazy drunk person!

Posted by: Shelley | June 22, 2006 at 12:31 PM

That is the best sound I've heard all day.

Posted by: erika | June 22, 2006 at 12:37 PM

LOL He sounds JUST LIKE my daughter Althea. 8 months old, almost 9. They are real close in age I think, right? And funny enough she thinks that when dolls and stuffed animals meet their doom or hit their head it's freaking hysterical. I do the same thing with her little stuffed frog. In fact if he hits his head on something on the way down.......BONUS LAUGHING!

Posted by: Maniacal | June 22, 2006 at 12:40 PM

so FRICKIN' cute! I love the baby belly laughs.

Posted by: Tasha | June 22, 2006 at 12:42 PM

Oh my god, when he reaches over and puts his hand on your knee like, "Holy shit, Mom, are you getting this? It's just too much!" I think my ovary turned on. Adorable.

Posted by: e. | June 22, 2006 at 12:42 PM

1st time commenting, just had to say OMG I had tears rolling down my cheeks laughing with him! He's adorable (reminds me of my 11month old) and his laugh is very infectious! Gotta love him!

Posted by: Katie | June 22, 2006 at 12:47 PM

So effing cute!

Posted by: Kelly | June 22, 2006 at 12:51 PM

Baby belly laughs are the best!!!

Posted by: emma | June 22, 2006 at 12:54 PM

I can't watch the video because my stupid work won't let me, but that doll looks like one that belonged to my cousin that he gave to me when I was born. My cousin was born around '78; I was born in '82. Is that the era for your doll? We called ours Honey. I do hope it's the same one. Now my cousin's 3-year-old daughter has Honey.

Posted by: LCA | June 22, 2006 at 12:57 PM

I love how Noah gets all excited like "Mama and I are sharing a joke" and has to touch Mama for emphasis. You guys look like good buddies.

Then at the end, he looks like he's feeling a little sick from all the laughing, and has to swallow carefully. But he keeps it up!

Cutest little guy.

Posted by: E. | June 22, 2006 at 01:24 PM

My ten month old was mesmerized by this. Thanks for the laugh.

Posted by: ellamama | June 22, 2006 at 01:28 PM

Well, that was WAY MORE FUN than hearing a competitive analysis of our chief rival. Thank you Noah!

Posted by: Bozoette Mary | June 22, 2006 at 01:29 PM

OMG he's so cute!!

And check it out...A Fisher-Price Honey doll from 1975! I totally have mine, still, not for collectible purposes, mind you. I'm too damn sentimental to throw the thing out.

Posted by: Occidental Girl | June 22, 2006 at 01:35 PM

Oh my gosh. I'm crying. Crying. That has got to be one of the funniest baby videos I've ever seen.

Posted by: Vida | June 22, 2006 at 01:41 PM

I cannot BELIEVE y'all recognized the doll. Fisher Price seriously needs to start making them again. Because they are 1) Indestructible, and 2) HILARIOUS.

Jason was born June 22, 1976, which means both he and that doll are officially 30 damn years old now.

Happy birthday, baby. I am baking you a cake right now. FROM SCRATCH. (Well, not RIGHT now, but you know.)

Posted by: Amalah | June 22, 2006 at 01:56 PM

Ok, so I wasn't the only one with a Fisher Price "Honey" doll growing up. It was my security blanket. My parents aparently didn't know that this was a BOY doll (he is rather effeminate, right?, so I named him Patricia. She's still around, but with a big hole in her plastic head.

Posted by: Flo | June 22, 2006 at 01:59 PM

Oh yeah...I'm so glad I came home for lunch because I just CRANKED IT UP! What a sweet, sweet sound. Love the baby laughs. And, happy birthday to your Jason.

Posted by: Jamie | June 22, 2006 at 02:01 PM

Thank you Amy! Today is my birthday and there is no sound I like better than baby belly laughs.

Noah is so freaking adorable. Both of mine would laugh like that if you sneezed or pretended to sneeze. Allergies equaled uncontrollable laughter in my house.

Posted by: Amber | June 22, 2006 at 02:16 PM

Can I please come over and listen to Noah laugh in person? That's the funniest, happiest sound I've heard in ages!!!

Posted by: Anne Glamore | June 22, 2006 at 02:18 PM

Oh, hee, that was good! My kids were cracking up, esp. when it sounds like he's saying "whoaaaaaaaa" in the middle, trying to catch his breath. My four-year-old just told his sister, "Sometimes after I finish laughing I cry." He can relate.

Posted by: Wacky Mommy | June 22, 2006 at 02:22 PM

Hey, happy birthday to Jason, too! I'm exactly one year older than he is.

Posted by: Amber | June 22, 2006 at 02:27 PM

I had that doll! That's HONEY!!

Posted by: anna | June 22, 2006 at 02:35 PM

Why does that make me giggle uncontrollably in my apartment alone? I am the oldest of seven kids and my mom did daycare in our house my whole life, and you'd think I would NOT BE THIS ENCHANTED by a baby.

But I am. And any time I think life sucks too much ass, I will come and watch this a few more times and I'll feel better, without a doubt.

Posted by: Kirsten | June 22, 2006 at 02:46 PM

Baby laughter = best sound ever. Thank you for sharing.
