Dear sweet-baby-boy Liam,
Oh, how I love you so. You're the light of my life. Except last night, it was dark and there was no light at the end of the tunnel. The last few nights you've been waking promptly at 1am even after I have drugged you. Last night, rather this morning you decided to not go back to sleep until 3:30am. You're tired, I am tired.
If you recall, this is how it went down.
Screaming, crying.
Lots of shooshing.
Lots of belly rubbing.
Then stop the belly rubbing.
Music on.
Stare at you until you dose back off.
Quietly tip toe out of the room.
CRAP, you heard a creak.
Repeat.
I broke down and gave you a bottle. Which I haven't given you a bottle in the night for over 6 months. That seemed to do the trick until 6am, then Daddy brought you to bed with us. Two big no-nos in the Fitz house! Yup, you won.
When I picked you up, you're fine, you're ready to party. As you know I am not above letting you cry it out. Which I did for 10 minutes. Yup, I turned off the sound on the monitor too. I could still hear you, the neighbors probably heard you too. I am sorry your teeth hurt and I hate to see you in pain. But you should be used to it by now. You're probably the only 10 month old with almost 14 teeth.
So tonight, let's get a few things straight. Go to bed. Stay in bed for at least 12 hours. Let me re-phrase that, stay in bed ASLEEP.
Thank you,
The Management

Oh...I so remember those days. Just remember those days don't last too long. Hang in there, Mama!
I'm cracking up over this part:
"But you should be used to it by now. You're probably the only 10 month old with almost 14 teeth."
Poor little boobaby! Hang in there, Fitzy!
Poor Liam!! Hudson just now has 14 teeth and he's 17 months :) At least you're getting it out of the way early!
Hope he's sleeping better now. And you too. "Even after I drugged you"...ahahaha.
That sucks but both of my kids went through this effed up stage. It happens to them all.
14 teeth? WTF? Neither of my kids had a tooth in their head at 12 months. Awwww Bill has a mouthful!!
