Cries

When Sonia cries, she does not always want to be fed or bounced. Just a few days ago, she was screaming and not responding to jiggling and not hungry. It took me a whole ten minutes to figure out she wanted her poopy pants changed. I know, one of the basic things a baby could want, right? The thing is, she never used to mind. Not that I want her in the dirty diaper, but it never used to be the cure for her fussing. Good thing to know.

In addition to diaper, she lets us know when she wants to lie on floor or change position in our arms. It almost sounds like she is saying, "Haaaay". This is also the sound she makes when she wants us to come closer.

Wow, it seems I take days to write entries these days. It is now August 31st. I'll report on more tomorrow, but I thought I would relay the events of today. Sonia got her vaccines today and is completely wiped out. She wakes up to nurse a bit then falls back asleep. Poor baby, but lucky parents. The first time she screamed for hours off and on. I put her down for a minute about an hour ago and she gave me such a pitiful expression. Not a cry, but worse. I picked her back up and put her over my shoulder in a little baby hug. Dinner can wait until Dad gets home.
