Do You Have Any Idea?!

Let me ask you something, what are on babies' minds? Go figure!

I have a nephew that I took care of when he was just 2-3 months old. As I've been watching him, I noticed him smile and cry on his sleep. I can’t quite figure out why. Did he smiled because he dreamed of floating on milk and cried because it suddenly drained out? And when he's awake and hungry, sometimes he hates to be breastfed and sometimes he craves for it. How can he possibly distinguish the difference??

When he was 5 months old, they went for a 2-month vacation in his mom's hometown—the same place where I'm currently studying. On their second day away from home, he started crying out his lungs; he wasn’t hungry and yes, he was sleepy, yet he can’t sleep, well, not until he lay on my dad's used clothes!!

When he turned 6-months last week, the green light to feeding him baby food was raised. As he was putting practically anything he got hold of into his mouth, we thought he got bored of the all-milk diet, and was definitely ready for the cooked-pulverized-rice meal, whatever you call it. Mind you, when it was time, we were like in a slaughter house! As he finished his meal, he would cry whenever he see his mom—but totally got over it just a little later. But, while he hasn’t recovered yet, I carried him for comfort when he suddenly let out a thunderous burp! It was too loud that he himself was terrified.

Whew! Isn't that something?! Now I can't wait for him to grow old into his teens, I would definitely mess around with him!
