Yeah, Riley is not interested in her thumb, instead she would rather her whole fist!! We could be sitting in the other room and you will just hear a sucking noise. Upon closer observation we have realized that she will spit out her paci and replace it with her fist!! It is really cute to see her going to town on her hand, but in the process of sucking away, she drools all over her clothes. But I guess it is keeping her happy, so I can't complain.
Things got worse today. She cried all afternoon while holding her ears. Anyone who has spent time around her lately knows that she loves to hold her ears when she is falling asleep. But it was almost as if they where hurting her. I am going to keep an eye on her tomorrow and if need be I will take her to them looked at on Friday. The only thing to keep her happy was to be held, which is TOTALLY not normal for her. Normally she likes to play and smiles a lot and love to be held when she is tired. So, my arms are tired tonight from holding her all day. Our day consisted of a feeding, playing for 5 minutes, crying, falling asleep in my arms for 30 minutes, playing for 10 minutes, crying, sleeping, eating, repeat!! I am very tired, but would not trade this job for anything in the world.....so I am off to numb the pain with a cold beer!!

Uh huh... sounds like she has picked up Madeline's old schedule :). Luckily it is just a phase and things are getting better. I hope her ears are okay!
Come over a join us for a swim next weekend. Madeline loves the water and we have the spa turned on to a comfortable temperture for babies.
