Usually, Abigail is full of smiles and laughs. I've been so spoiled/blessed with such an easy going little girl. However the last two days she has been out of sorts, and since I'm not used to a fussy baby, I am frustrated. After being held constantly and spoiled by four people all week last week, the adjustment back to life with just me has been difficult for her. In addition, I can actually see an eye tooth popping through her gums. She is also getting pretty mobile, so she is into everything she can get her hands on reach by rolling. She gets upset with me every time I take away something she should have. I think she is also beginning an attachment phase. Every time I'm out her sight or I turn my back on her, she starts screaming. All that to say, it has been a tough couple of days around the Young house and the office. I don't know how mothers with high maintenance babies do it...you have my respect and sympathy! Well, I am going to end this post because a sleepy Abigail's sitting on my lap trying to help me type, and it isn't working too well. I am hoping she will fall asleep soon, so I can run on the treadmill and take a bath before bed. I just need a little space and time to myself. You can pray that this stage will pass soon!

Our first Summer with a baby at CP was so wonderful! Deidrah was 4mths old. When Deidrah was fussy, teething, clingy, etc. and I needed a break, there were always hands there ready and waiting... and if they weren't ready and waiting, sometimes I'd just hand her off and walk away without a second thought. I'll pray for such a Summer for you too.
I will confess though, she was a bit spoiled by the end of it all.
Ben swears, the CP Summers are why she is so social...
