Tylenol

Olive is sick (Meaning she does not look like this) Olive has been sick for about a week (That means I haven't gotten much sleep). I feel so horrible for my baby. When Olive is sick she gets clingy and too much clingy makes Mom anti-clingy. Don't get me wrong I love to cuddle with my little booger butt but when she is attached to my leg all day and won't play on her own and just wants to lay in bed with me all day, it gets old FAST. Everything is a mess and my patience is being tested every second. Since she got sick a week ago she has refused to sleep in her crib (even for a nap), she won't even sleep in my bed with me next to her. No... she wants me to hum her to sleep while she is on my chest as I lay in bed. Thats right ladies and gentlemen, we are back to the infant days all of the sudden. I have even tried putting her to sleep on my chest and then rolling her over on to the bed, by no luck. She wakes up and screams while trying to feel her way to me in a sleepy haze. I don't know what to do. I am at a loss. So for now I will go along with the little princess and I will let everything become a bigger mess. Because my baby is in pain, and the painful cry I CAN NOT stand. It rips into my heart faster than anything. 

It's funny to think that when Olive was 3 months old I yearned for her to need me like she does now, to cry when others held her, to reach out to me in desperate attempt to be in my arms. And look at how things have changed. 

So lets all say prayers for Olive so she can once again look like this.
