Fussy and Fighting Naps!




Okay, I have to vent here. Where has my easy going, laid back baby gone? Up until about a month ago Journey was so laid back and happy. From the time she was born she was completely happy in the swing or on the floor with toys or watching Aspen. Now I can barely leave her side without her fussing or crying. She is so clingy and just plain fussy. I thought at first it was teething because her top front tooth was taking its sweet time coming in, but now that it has been in for a while I don't have anything to blame it on. I am really hoping it is somehow a phase and not just my parenting style.........

And another thing, I am having the hardest time with getting Journey to nap. She is so inconsistent. Every nap time I am holding my breath to see if she will actually sleep. I am getting so tired of being stressed out listening to Journey cry it out. Night time sleep has gotten better though. She almost always sleeps through the night now. I am thankful for that. Wow, its been a tough day! I work so hard at being consistent and it just doesn't seem to make things any better or more predictable. I absolutely love having a baby girl. It has been so much fun. I think it has just been the unpredictability that has been wearing me out. I think she has a stubborn streak. Yikes!
