Not Always Happy

Someone told me the other day, "Sean is always smiling and happy, you are so lucky." This made me giggle inside because yes Sean is usually happy, but the last 6 weeks have not all been smiles and giggles. Sean is teething, had a cold, allergies, eczema, who knows? What I do know, is that whatever has been bothering him, has created a baby that refuses to sleep. Naps have been reduced to 20-40 minutes at a time, and at night he only goes about 2-3 hours before waking in tears. I am so sleep deprived I called a client twice last week within 10 minutes to ask the same question. I also placed an order with a factory twice because I forgot I already emailed it. To cope, Motrin and Tylenol have been flowing freely in our house and I think we are just about through it. This is a good thing since Tom and I are walking zombies. Sean has slept much better the last 2 days, but I am sure I just jinxed it by posting this. Wish us luck.
