One of the worst days ever. I've recently been on my own a lot with B because the boy has been working a lot. Working a lot is great for me, because it just means more time I don't have to get a job, but working a lot sucks for me because taking care of a super active one year old is hard!
B isn't a crier at all. Today? Three hours straight of crying. Complete with a gloriously snotty nose, big fat tears, drooling, clinging... the works. The only thing that consoled her was letting her play with my cell phone. Then when that didn't work anymore I took her in for a diaper change. That also tends to get her refocused when she's having a moment, but this time? She fell asleep... STILL CRYING!
The poor thing. She was just overtired because she didn't nap well today at all. She completely refused dinner, but sucked down a bottle of milk... while still crying!.. in no time flat, then went right to sleep. She was out before 6pm. it's almost 11pm now, and I still haven't heard a peep from her.
I'm sure I just doomed myself to a long night and early morning.

Poor baby. Charlotte has had a few miserable days recently, but we knew what was wrong (she caught a cold) so it was a little easier to deal with. There's really nothing worse than not knowing why baby is crying... when we don't know, we can't do anything to make it all better. I hate that helpless feeling. I hope she's OK again and back to her happy smiley self!
The crying is just so much worse when Momma is on the verge of tears, too!
