But boy has it been rough the last couple days. We think maybe he's getting teeth? I don't feel anything, but he is sure screaming like something is happening. Yesterday he cried for almost 2 hours. Not just a normal cry, but the cry where it sounds like you're cutting their legs off? Yea, that kind of cry. Oh, did I mention I was teaching downstairs, and our poor babysitter was attempting to calm him? Yeah. It didn't go very well. It resulted in me excusing myself and heading upstairs several times. Our sitter was doing everything she could, but she just didn't know what to do.
Quite frankly, I didn't know what to do.
He seemed tired, we kept putting him down, and then he'd wake up SCREAMING again. *sigh* I felt awful, our sitter felt even worse. She did laugh though when I said to her.. when your friends say 'I want to have a baby' you can relay this real life moment with them, because it's not always coos, giggles, and smiles. We finally, after exhausting everything, gave him some tylenol. He calmed down within minutes and was completely happy the rest of the evening. Of course that was after our sitter left completely worn out and frazzled from the experience)
Poor Kid.
I hope these teeth make an appearance soon. And if it's not teeth that whatever it is we can figure out, because this bites. (no pun intended)

oh i know how you are feeling! i still don't always know what to do or what is going on with child #3! we are having long nights with leila and nadia. i think maybe they are both teething...
Oh man, I hope the teeth show up soon, if that's what's bothering your little man. It's hard not knowing what's bothering your baby!
Before you know it, he'll be able to tell you what's wrong. :)
