She bit me!

Ugh, Beanie bit me! Not on accident while nursing, but outright I-am-mad bit me! She was reaching over to turn off the computer (one thing I hate about the desktop is that we have the tower or whatever-you-call-it on the floor) and I told her no and picked her up. Little stinker leaned over and bit my hand that was holding her! She has never been a biter, and I hope this isn't the start of it.

Her canine teeth are coming in and she is just cranky as hell. The other night we went to my aunt and uncle's for dinner and she had the biggest meltdown I have ever witnessed. It was ridiculous. She also wants to nurse a ton and it is driving me a bit mad. I know her teeth hurt and we are hold up in the house because of the weather, but yesterday she wanted to nurse nonstop! Usually she can be distracted if I know she isn't really hungry and just wants to nurse because she's bored, but lately there's been no dissuading her. I'm not ready to wean her yet (and obviously she has no intention of self-weaning any time soon), but I would like for her to go back to somewhat of a schedule. I'm tossing around the idea of starting to give her cow's milk too. I'm sure she won't take to it much in the beginning, but it might be good for her to have some while I'm at work. I don't know, I keep going back and forth on it.

I can't believe xmas is less than a week away. Holy moly! I need to get around to perfecting the house as everyone is coming over to celebrate here. I've kind of let my daily cleaning ritual fall by the wayside since the house isn't on the market anymore. I'd better get back into it though; if Glenn gets a job lined up for after he's laid off we'd like to put our house back on the market as soon as possible.

  1. Ouch! That doesn't sound too pleasant. Brandon gets that way but more of a kidding bite than anything. Oh, I am sorry she had a meltdown. I don't blame her with teeth coming in. Awie!

  2. Ooh, sorry to hear about the bite! Alex has been doing this more than just occasionally, and it hurts so much! I hope it was just a one-time thing for you!
