The baby was extremely cranky tonight. Dinner was served to her, but halfway through her meal, her fussing began. She started scratching her head and tugging her ears with her hands, somewhat like a dog using its hind leg to scratch the behind of its ears. Then she waved her hands and tried to push away the spoon. And of course, she cried and cried, until my uncle living next door came over to see what happened. He managed to pacify her for a while, but she regained her fussy mood again. She cried so loudly my uncle gave up and escaped home to enjoy some peace.

She must be feeling very sleepy, or else she seldom cried for so long. And true enough, she started rubbing her eyes and dozed off a few times. Seeing no possibility to let her finish her porridge, I granted her wish and sent her to dreamland. After 45min of rest, I thought she would wake up happy and contented and would be ready to finish her meal. But she acted up again when we tried to feed her. Gave up, let her drink milk instead. She nursed happily. Maybe that provided her more comfort.

I wonder what caused her to be so irritable. Was it because I eat too many brownies today? She was exactly like that last Thursday and Friday, and I ate a lot of brownies on those two days too!
