All day she screamed and fussed off and on. It was Tylenol, bath, nap, repeat. If she's like this tomorrow we're going to the doctor. She had a runny nose last week and then it cleared up on it's own and now fever and runny nose. My mom keeps telling me to watch out for the symptoms of ear infections, but I'm hoping this all has to do with teething. She's chewing her fingers a lot.
She was perkier in the afternoon so we headed to my cousin's son's (my 2nd cousin?)twelfth birthday party. It made me feel old to nap during the party yesterday, but it REALLY made me feel old that this child I've know since he was born is now turning 12!! It was quite an affair complete with a bounce house with a slide inside it. My other cousin who lives an hour away was there with her kids and Isaac was thrilled since he doesn't see them alot.
They had the bouncy in the front yard and the garage open with the food in there and then canopies to sit under in the back. They even had fans out back, but it was really hot. You never know in September in Florida, but it was a hot one. Of course Riley enjoyed the fan more than the boucy. After an hour or two Riley had had enough and even Isaac seemed to be coming unglued. I think the heat+2parties in 2 days was too much.
We were relieved to be home in the nice cool quiet after all the running around this weekend. I find it particularly challenging to balance the kids activities and sleep time on weekends so both kids seem to wind up over or underwhelmed pretty consistantly. At least Sept has afforded tons of opportunities for practicing I think we attended about 100 birthday parties this month ok maybe 6, but still.
By bedtime I was pretty confident this was a teeth issue, but nothing derails transitioning back to the crib like a sick baby. She spent the night with me.
PS: The teeth came through on the top on either side of her front teeth on 9/21
