Every parent likes to have a happy baby and the little sound of the first laugh of their little bundle gives the mom and dad such happiness. The warmth and love of the parents makes the baby feel the protection and care which helps to make the baby happy I guess. I found some really happy pictures of some babies on http://www.babypics.com/pics/a15 and wonder what makes them so happy!!!!
