Toothaches and Headaches

This week Harriett appears to be having a growth spurt and teething.

I am tired and running low.  My baby who is usually happy and calm in restless and grumpy,  I can't say I blame her.

It's easy to get frustrated when nothing you do seems to soothe them.  I've reminded myself a good 40 times over the last few days that she is a baby and this is her only way of communicating.  I dream about an app being made that analyses your child's cries and within 20 seconds determines whether they are hungry, tired, cold, hot or gassy.  I would give all of my savings to purchase it.

The dishes are not done, I haven't showered and the laundry is piling up.  But I have dinner in the slow cooker and a baby that is wrapped up like a burrito and is snoozing safely.

Today is a day for focusing on the little things that have worked.
