Poor Baby C is having a rough time. Since I have spring break this week, I opted to keep her home from daycare so I could spend a little more time with her while E was at school. This morning she proved to be pretty worked up about something or other, because she kept making this high-pitched squealing noise. She continued to do this version of baby whining most of the day, and was pretty darn tired as she took four naps. What kind of 8 month old takes 4 naps a day? I think she may have slept more today than she was awake!
Besides the physical ailments right now, which definitely indicate she is still getting over whatever cold virus she has had in all its mutated forms for nearly three weeks, she is clearly developing some very strong emotions. For such a chill and easy baby, she certainly has opinions now about where she wants to go and what she wants to play with. She makes a beeline for all electrical cords, dirty shoes, remote controls, and anything else that we don't want her playing with, and when these things are taken away, she screeches like a banshee. Clearly, little Baby C is sending a message to us - that she is tired of being second and is ready to assert her individuality. Well, we are listening.
End Day 25.
