Slap!

Every once in a while Evi has a bad night. She will usually go right back to sleep in the middle of the night with a little bit of milk and a soothing butt-pat. Not this night. She was fussy and wiggly and frustrating! Luckily we have a great baby carrier that serves to soothe the wild beasty. I wrestled it on in the dark, in my sleep-deprived state, then proceeded to wrestle Evi into it as well. Success! She calmed down immediately, snuggled her head onto my chest and fell asleep. The (very slow) time ticked away and I was thinking I might be able to take her out and put her in her crib. At almost this exact moment, Evi suddenly pushed herself away from me, looked me in the eye, swung her hand back and SLAPPED me across the face! WTF?! She immediately snuggled right back up to me and fell back to sleep.
