I don't know if you can make her laugh and giggle, but try this phrase on for size - I think it comes close.
 
huh hah, huzz-ah!

I also discovered something that I have yet to try, but it seems you can change pronunciation with TTS using the ^, _, and ' keys (this may only work in Ivona voice, I don't know if it's a standard).
 
put ^ at the end of a sentence to have the voice inflection go up (like as in a question)
put _ at the end to make intonation go down
put ' in a word where you want the emphasis to be placed - use this for words that the TTS incorrectly pronounces to get the emphasis where it needs to be.

I just tried this in VA and it does do the voice inflection but it also says carrot, or underscore. Anyway to make it not say that?
