The Joys of Teething!

The weekend is always stressful. Mike works a lot and does a lot of homework and I'm pretty much a basket case by the time it comes around. This past week has been even more crazy. Why you ask- well, Sean has thrown up A LOT, has diarrhea explosions every hour, and is even crankier than usual! I swear it's b/c he is teething. I promise you every time he has more than one tooth come in he throws up like crazy. Anyone else experience that? Well, last night, he seemed to be better. We were having fun chillin' on my bed watching a movie. We shared a bag of chips (well, he ate most of them:) But, I kept thinking, oh well, he hasn't eaten in like a week, I'm sure he's starving. THEN I made him chicken nuggets. The kid ate them and was still hungry. I then made him fish sticks. Again, he polished those off like it was his job. Finally satisfied, I do the night time routine and put him to bed. I checked on him at 11 and the minute I walked in his room I knew he had a messy one. So, I got him up to change his diaper. As soon as I lifted him up, he let out the loudest burp I have ever heard (adults included). I tried to make it out of his room- to no avail. The kid blew chunks all over his room! this is like the 10th time in the past week and a half! And Mike wasn't there to clean it up like he normally does. Needless to say, I will never eat Baked Southwestern chips again. Ever. or Wild Rice, or eggs, or pancakes. If we keep this up I might just end up at my goal weight faster than I had hoped:)
What happened to my toothless baby!!
