Last night we were afraid Della had finally learned to cry. Did Annie teach her? We were over there yesterday. Here she is whispering in Della’s ear. 

Della cried really loud, rather than just making her mousy baby noises, which we prefer. If Annie’s not to blame, then it was the pineapple pizza Mom ate for dinner Thursday night. I’d been avoiding milk and cheese since Della was born because of evidence of early dairy sensitivity in her maternal lineage. But then I just really wanted some pizza. 

Any photos from Della’s crying fit are too graphic for circulation. Here she is during happier times.
