I think her mouth was getting dry frequently, since humidity levels are low here. So she started to use her tongue more often to moisten her lips. It gave all wrong signals. Everybody thought she was hungry, so I was sent to feed her almost all the time. it was quite tiring, since she used to drink a spoonful and then refuse to have any more. It took me a while to understand the problem.
I didn't want to use any lip balm etc, so I tried to use cream of milk. Heh, it didn't really help. As soon as I applied that on her lips, she used to eat it all. I tried to apply it when she was asleep, but she still used to suck it clean. Luckily it got better toward end of the week. Now she is no more feeling dry.
She is pretty happy here. It's a big house for one thing and there are too many things put on the ceiling. So she enjoys her play time. Dadu has got her a big red inflatable plane, which is tied to the ceiling and she loves to play with it.
I also take her out in the lawn in evening. It's amusing the way she stares at flower beds and roses and tall green mountains. Though I wonder if she is able to appreciate the Himachal beauty for now.
Lot of people had been visiting us to meet her and she has been handling all the crowd pretty gracefully. I make sure to put her in her bouncer and let her see them one by one. Boy, she gives real hard stares to new faces. Once she gets acquainted with them, it's easier to play with her.
