Many moods

I don't really know any other babies. I meet 'em, of course, some of them quite frequently. But obviously I do not live with any other babies, getting to know them as well as we 'know' our own mysterious l'il tot.



So I'm not sure if all babies are as volatile as ours is. In just a few minutes she can go from wriggly chirpy coos to exhausted fussing (followed by nap) to plaintive 'I woke up alone, all alone' yowls to delighted squeaks to hungry fussing to eager slurping to dozy 'holding pattern' comfort sucking.



And even in the middle of a determined screaming session, we can get the occasional sulky smile.



A baby of many moods. It's like she metamorphoses into a whole other baby!



Just think, Hubby says, how many new little 'personalities' she will unfold in the months and years to come, in different places and with different friends and caregivers. We adults all show different aspects of ourselves in different situations, under different stresses, and with different people, and so will she. Of course, that means some facets of her developing personality we will never get to see... so I feel privileged that just at this point in her life, when we're always together, that I can get to know all about her.
