Let me hear you SCREAM!!!

Brian and I went into this past weekend on the sleep deprived side. Makenna was up all night screaming her little head off and we couldn't figure out what in the world was wrong. The week before she had tubes put in so our minds went straight to that thinking that her ears were bothering her. She didn't want to be rocked, held, left alone or laid down. Since she kept arching her back we thought it may be gas but then she would throw her head back. We laid her down on the floor in her bedroom and she just flopped around like a fish out of water. We finally took her to bed with us and we laid there miserably while she cried and slowly butted us toward the edges of the bed and she kept kicking Brian in the face.

Saturday, it finally hit us....she was teething...MOLARS! It has been awful! Not only a molar but TWO molars, top and bottom. Once we figured that out, we gave her some teething tablets and she finally went to sleep....and so did we. :)

It really is amazing how two children can be so different. Peyton never expressed any emotion while teething. He was so laid back and easy going and one day he just had all of his teeth. Makenna wants the world to know her pain. She's my drama child....with 7 teeth and 2 on the way.
