AAAAH!

Our dear Calista has taken to a high-pitched shriek, as a way of calling out to people.

I was playing with her on my lap one day, and was still singing silly songs when she suddenly stared far away to my left side and went 'AAH!' I was slightly puzzled, but continued focusing on her until I suddenly sensed a presence in the living room and was startled when I turned my head and saw Christian sitting wordlessly on the floor, a little zombified right after waking up from his nap. She was calling out to her brother.

This morning, when she woke at 6-something am as she is wont to do, she did the usual exploration of the bed while I ignored her, before starting to crawl resolutely to the foot of her bed, where her dad is sleeping on a mattress on the floor (we decided that this was the best sleeping arrangement..i get space to nurse Calista and P gets peace at night and a good sleep.) She paused before plunging to the mattress below, saw that her father was still sleeping and motionless, and went "UH!" There was no reaction, but another "AH!" did the trick. He stirred, and she clapped her hands.
