There is a moto that says "If Moma ain't happy, ain't no one happy." I think what they really meant to say is "If the Baby ain't happy..."
Something is wrong. I don't know what it is, but something is wrong. She is waking up every 1.5 hours for the last 5 nights. No amount of Motrin will help her. I thought it was teeth, but she doesn't seem to be getting better. My friend said this morning that it might be that her stomach is upset from the Motrin, which is a possibility. Who KNOWS? Even during the day she has been giving me a lot of attitude. These teeth hurt worse than they really need to. I am taking her to the doctor today.
It seems that most of the time I have this wonderful happy child, but lately, she has been having these dark ravaging screaming fits. An example would be this morning. she was laughing and having a good time, but then I tried to put her into her high chair. Holy Cow. You would have thought I was slapping her. I checked her feet a couple of times to be sure they weren't twisted or something wasn't bothering her. Why would she be so upset to go into the high chair? After she took a big poo, she was much better, but still, she has never acted like that before. It seems like anything she doesn't want to do becomes a huge ordeal with screaming and an arching back.
Mom and Dad came down this weekend. It was fun for them to see Peanut because since the last time they have saw her, she was just getting steady on her feet. Now she is all over the place.
She is getting very good at using words. I think she is saying "babba" for her water cup. She has also master saying Daddy when she wants to get Mr. T's attention. I noticed yesterday that when we passed someone on the road she would say "Hi", which is a step up from saying "Hey" which is what we say around our house.
Yesterday we finally had a warm day, so I put the little one in the backpack and we went for a walk to the park. Along the way I let her down so she could walk and explore her world. She walked over to some woody weeds with seeds and picked them. I thought she would put it directly into her mouth, so I wasn't prepared for the look of surprise and the quick replacement of the twig top on the broken bottom. It looks like she is only prepared to destroy stuff in our house but not in the world at large.

Oh lord. I hope for both your sakes everything is ok. Believe me when it comes to screaming fits I hear ya. Tess not only screams, she bangs her head into stuff and flings her body every which way so that you can't grab her. I was seriously considering putting a helmet on her because she would get mad and bang her head over and over. I am sure Peanut will be fine and hopefully all these little girl babies will start to act like little ladies before we rip all our hair out!
