we're in that wonderful stage of screaming for everything with theia. it's been really rough, she's obviously not happy about something, or nothing, or maybe everything. it's so hard to tell. she's certainly always hungry, and then she's just had it with the car too. nothing makes her scream like the car seat. the minute she sees it she starts screaming. i never know what to do, listen?, ignore it?, what? we did take her binky away a couple weeks ago, so of course i'm sure that ties into all of this. before when she'd get ticked in the car we'd just give her the binky and she'd be fine. late night rides were almost certain to put her to sleep, but now with mr. b. gone, she just cries and hardly ever just cries herself to sleep.
we've been playing jazz or blues in her room at night to help her get back to sleep when she does wake up and doesn't have the binky to help her. it's been pretty effective, and now we mostly play jazz in the car, so when she is tired, it helps her to just lay her head down. now i've got nothing against jazz and the blues, it's actually what i play mostly when i'm playing the drums, but listening to it constantly, well, i've heard about all the trumpets, trombones and brass i can handle.
anyway, i'm sure that in time this too shall pass, but until then, i'll be hunting for my ear plugs.
