A New Cry

In the last week, Noah's cry has changed from a newborn wail to a distinctly older baby "waa waa." This has been surprising and amusing to Mom and Dad. Noah is definitely trying to tell us what he does and does not like. He is starting to vary the pitch and intensity of his cry depending on his needs. He has a low slow cry when he's bored. In contrast to a higher pitch almost panicky cry when he's hungry. When he's tired he just fusses constantly until we figure it out or he wears himself out. We still haven't quite figured out his diaper cry, but we're definitely giving it our best effort. Ahhh... it will be nice when we can communicate with Noah by signing and talking. But that's a way off yet.
