What Baby Needs

Hungry?
Gassy?
Wet?
Lonely?
Cold?
Hot?
Sun in the eyes?
Bored?
Want to be held?

Is it a hungry cry?  A Bored cry?  A 5PM why is everyone cranky and dinner not made cry?

Early the other morning (approximately 3AM) I was trying to burp baby K and sleep at the same time when she dug her little fists into my collar bone and did a push up.  "OH? What is it dear?" I asked, waking my poor husband.

She pushed harder until I could see her eyes, then she grinned.

Oh!  you needed to smile at me.  Thank you, Sweetheart.
