whining from all members of the household this weekend

This has been a challenging weekend as far as parenting goes. Miss Baby took a turn for the whiny on Friday and she has really kept with it. It didn't really hit me that hard on Friday. I was a bit frazzled by the end of the day but mostly okay. By yesterday, though, my nerves were taking a beating. She whines whether she's being held or playing in the floor or getting a diaper change or.. well, whenever she takes a notion to. I suppose I should be feeling sympathetic because clearly, something is amiss, but geez, it's been going on for three days now and I would just like our happy baby back. I am having fantasies of the time when she can go spend the night with Granny by now. ;) It may be her teeth and it may be her belly--there have been some indications of both. It may be that she's a little brat... that one is pretty likely too. :) Did I tell you that my mom gets irritated with me when I call her a brat? *laugh* The one thing that she seems to actually like right now is being in the walker. Maybe she's just frustrated with being unable to GO GO GO on her own.

The Farmer in the Dell has been sung in great quantities. The farmer takes a wife. The wife takes the child. The child takes the dog. The dog takes the cat. AARRGH. The cheese, IT STANDS ALONE. Evelyn does not stand alone. Evelyn whines. It is really hard to sing while typing, fyi. I am sitting here unable to think of a single thing to say because THE BABY ATE MY BRAIN. I might as well go beg the little girl to go to sleep because I am not accomplishing much here. ;)
