Seasonal Allergies and the Quest of the Missing Nap

I don't know about the rest of you, but something in the air this week is driving my allergies bonkers. Itchy throat and ears, watery eyes, sneezing, all things I could do without. Even Paige's eyes have been red and watery. Last night, around midnight, I couldn't take it anymore and decided to medicate. Big mistake. The medicine I took, USED to make me drowsy. I USED to be very careful about when and where I would take it (no heavy machinery for instance) because I got so tired, so fast. Post pregnancy though, my body seems to react very differently to things. I was wound up like a cheap alarm clock. Long story short, I didn't go back to bed until around 3:00am.

Speaking of USED to...Paige has been on a very predictable schedule for the last 2 months or so. Like clockwork we knew when she would eat, how much, when she would nap, how long and so on. I was counting on her 2 hour nap from 9am to 11am today. I NEEDED her to nap from 9am to 11am today. It was ESSENTIAL that she nap from 9am to 11am today. At 8:55 I popped her in her crib and she.....screamed! Hmmmm. We read a book in the rocking chair. I popped her in her crib and she.....howled! WHY?! WHY TODAY?!

We ended up playing and and eating right on through her "nap-time". Eight minutes ago I popped her in her crib and she rolled over and hugged her bun-bun. I haven't heard her since.

Good night everybody!
