Laughing Baby

If only kids stayed at an age where ripping up a grocery list provided enough entertainment for a giggle fit. Mine have, inevitably, developed more sophisticated tastes as they get older but the father of the baby in this video can still get his little daughter to crack up on command. Those were the days…
The “laughing baby” has racked up 6 million YouTube views over the past few days, so the Today Show booked the kid and his parents this morning. Despite attempts to get a similarly enthusiastic laugh, the baby mostly just sat there and sucked his thumb. It seems a ripped piece of paper just isn’t as funny now to Micah McArthur as it was five weeks ago when the video was shot:

Micah’s parents Mandi and Marcus talked to KSDK-TV about their son’s rise to YouTube fame.
