out of control

[Guest guest]

First - before I forget I finally put a few photos of in yahoo. They are

under R.

I swear if it isn't one thing isn't another. (4 years) hasn't been

crying too much the past few days, and eating a lot better. She was on

amoxicillin for her Strep throat, so maybe that was causing those issues the

other week.

My DH had a special project at work starting Thursday night (he works days).

For this he had to go in to work Thursday, Friday & Saturday about 4:00 p.m.,

and work overnight. turned into a maniac at bedtime. She wouldn't hold

still for diaper, night clothes, etc. Way worse than normal. The 3rd night she

wouldn't even let me brush her teeth, and she's usually pretty good about that.

The 1st & 3rd night I was in tears from her wild behavior. Last night was

home as usual, so she of course wasn't too bad at bedtime.

This morning I thought I wasn't going to get her orthotics & shoes on. She

hates wearing shoes of any type, but should know by now she needs these

shoes/orthotics for school. This actually started last week, but escalated this

morning. She was thrashing her legs & kicking so much. My one finger still

hurts from her kicking it. I'm sure her shoes won't be very comfortable at

school this morning, because I couldn't get all the pieces correctly in place.

When called from work this morning I told him he's going to have to rig up

something for me to strap her legs in place in the mornings. I already sit her

in her booster tray with the tray on, because there is no way I'd get these

shoes on her if she hasn't sitting/confined.

The funny thing is she's gotten much better playing with her sister lately.

There is hardly any hair pulling. I guess she's turned her aggression totally

towards MOMMY again...
