Finally.


To call Leila a jumpy/easily frightened/neurotic child is really an understatement. I have NEVER encountered or even heard of a child like her. You'd think with two loud brothers--and yes a loud mom-- that she'd be use to the loud noises and occasional hair grabbing (o.k. really you never get "use" to hair grabbing) or just being picked up when she's crying. That's right, she freaks out when you pick her up to console her for something else that caused her to freak out. She's also incredibly lazy. Refuses to roll over or scoot or hold her bottle. But now and then she has these moments of pure unrestricted bliss where she will reach out & grab things, flail around, roll side-to-side and not mind the noise or movement..you know, basically act like a baby. So it's really really ironic that the child that hates sudden movements and noise like, nay thoroughly enjoys, the spaceship-like jumper we had gotten for Kohi. Again, she's unlike any child I've ever known.
