Sometimes, while nursing, Leina gets hit by a bolt of baby electricity. I’m not sure why or what causes it but all of a sudden, her arms and legs all shoot out at once. Since she’s on her side, only her top arm and leg fly into the air but this is enough for her to lose her balance and she begins to tip backwards. Her little eyes open in alarm and she starts windmilling her arm and leg to try and keep herself from tipping over. Sort of looks like she’s trying to do the side stroke.

I always grab her before she falls back onto my lap and she gives me this big relieved look like “phew mom, that was close…. That’s almost a half and inch drop there. You should have that fixed, a kid could get hurt.” And then she pops back on and continues snacking until the next baby bolt hits her.

I’m telling you, this kid is cute.
