Toddler for Sale!

What happened to my sweet, easy going girl? Okay, it's been a seriously long day. I guess it all started yesterday afternoon with Brent. Audrey is teething we think, getting those sucky molars. She keeps chomping on her paci in the corner of her mouth and is drooling like mad. She has had tantrum, after tantrum, after tantrum today. Brent and I both feel as a loss here, we don't know how to make her happy. We have given her some teething tablets and are hoping that gives her a little relief, but we just can't win here. She just lays on the floor and screams. We had Lucy over this morning to try and cheer her up and we ended up putting her in her crib while her friend was over. Uggghhhhh, she slept for 3 1/2 hours and we were so excited that she had a great nap and we would have a great afternoon, not the case. It sucks to watch her act like this and we would do anything to make it stop. We have never experienced this so far, so I have to say we are pretty lucky. I sure hope this ends soon, it's draining and I hate for daycare to have to deal with this.

Poor girl! and poor mom and dad! Hopefully she gets those teeth soon. Maybe she's getting a cold or something, too?

If all else fails, send her to grandma's :)

Hope you guys are having a good night and that tomorrow will be a bit better.

Don't fear, your sweet girl WILL return. But I know it's no fun at all when they fall into a few days of crabbiness. Hang in there, buddy! Oh, and when Lucy was going to bed tonight she kept saying - "Audrey asleep? Lucy asleep."

Poor Audrey! Yes, it is difficult when you can't do anything to make her feel better, and she can't really tell you what's bothering her yet.

Like they say, "this too shall pass". . .

Hang in there!
