Growth Spurt

Remember my precious little baby who gave the biggest smiles after eating? Where did he go?! It amazes me how literally overnight my sweet, happy, cuddly boy turns into a cranky, inconsolable "mini monster" when a growth spurt strikes! I should have realized yesterday afternoon when C started acting fussy and refused to nap. He decided to not sleep last night either and requested a meal every HOUR on the hour. He was wide awake for more than four hours straight before finally dozing off as the sun came up.

Someone thinks he is starving to death!

That looks like one dissatisfied customer!

Today has not been much better. I took him for a walk around the neighborhood only to have him scream bloody murder for the last 15 minutes as I booked it back home. He's been cat napping for about 30 minute stretches and then waking up angry at the world. Even after eating, snacking, and going back for thirds he is still miserable. I'd be worried he wasn't getting enough but the 12 diapers we've already gone through since this morning (and my pile of soaked shirts from listening to him fuss) beg to differ! Poor guy- let's hope this spurt doesn't last too much longer, we're both exhausted!!
