Teething is not fun for anyone!!


My poor, poor baby! He just got two new teeth and has two more trying to break through, and he is just miserable! I just feel horrible for him. I give him Tylenol, I've tried teething tablets, and I even got the teething gel today. I couldn't get the gel in his mouth...when I did, he just cried and cried. Poor guy. I'm just not used to him being crabby because he's usually so good natured,. And he mostly takes two naps a day (now maybe one and maybe for an hour if we're lucky), so it's been quite a tough few weeks for baby and Mommy! :) I just hope those teeth come in soon so my poor boy can start sleeping again and feeling better. I'm praying for a good night's sleep today and two white, shiny teeth in the morning! It hurts me when my baby hurts. I hate to see him sad. The worst part was watching him eat. Every now and then he'd cry because it hurt, but when I went to get him out he'd grab more food. He's a Deegan through and through! Nothing keeps us away from our food! :)


It was a good day, though. I got to watch my niece and nephew this morning...good practice at having 3 children! :) And my sister got an adorable haircut!


Jake did end up sleeping for about 45 minutes today, so I was able to fit in a quick workout. I have to start as soon as I put him down (especially recently), because he might be up in 20, 30, 40 minutes...I just never know. I did level 3 and then level 1 of the 30 Day Shred right in a row. It was great. Yesterday I was able to go to my typical workout at ASI. It's an intense, 45 minute workout that I typically do 3 times a week with my friend/co-worker. Yesterday was a mix of free weights and speedflex with some walking lunges and push ups in between each round (5 rounds). It was great!


Though I hope to, I'm not sure I'll get in another run before Saturday. I typically have Fridays off but have to go in tomorrow for an interview day for our 2011 interns. It'll be a busy day so it will go by quickly! Today was supposed to be my day off work (since I'm going in tomorrow), but we are just so incredibly busy right now, so I worked every second I could in between the babysitting, teething child, and my workout...surprisingly I got quite a bit done! I started by getting up early so I could get some work in before the kids got here and while Jake was still in bed, worked while Jake ate and then again while he was playing happily for part of the afternoon.


I'm debating being "bad" tomorrow and getting Chinese for dinner! We love Chinese but only have it once in a while. It's been quite a week...I think we need a treat! Now I will start dinner while Phil mows at my parents. What a day! I'm thankful tomorrow is Friday and another weekend is here to enjoy with my sweet boys.
