Spoke Too Soon

I told Stac Carp that Ander was sleeping well. And I truly meant it, at the time.

A half hour after we put him to bed, where he was sleeping before we could even say good night, he started screaming. He must have cried for a half hour. I guess he had a nightmare. He was crying, but sound asleep. Nothing helped, not even holding him.

This morning, he slept late. But he is a cranky bear. Everything (and I mean everything, including the no kick mommy rule) is making him scream. His butt is covered in what looks like pimples (yeast, maybe?), he got a hair caught in his teeth when drinking his milk, and he keeps telling me his feet hurt and asking me to rub them (the one thing that makes him happy right now). He stands at the pantry, but refuses all food except begs for Coke, which he is clearly not getting.

It's going to be a long day.

Etcetera.

And you totally slept through him screaming his head off at 11:30pm, 1:00am, 2:15am, 3:10am, 4:10am (the only time I didn't get up with him), and 5:00am.
