Sleepy Baby

Meghan woke up early from her afternoon nap with tooth pain (we are assuming based on the fact that she seemed to want to gnaw one of her hands off!!). Come 30 minutes before time to start bedtime routine, she was one tired baby!

Call me a bad mom if you like, but I put my fussy little girl in a bouncy seat, used my hand to bounce it for her, and allowed her to watch an episode of Baby Mozart. She thoroughly enjoyed the show and it worked to help her through a rough time until it was almost bedtime. She was so content and so engaged in watching the simple motions and sucking HARD on her pacifier. And, she was so cute lounging in her seat!
