He wasn't throwing a tantrum, A just seemed so sad. It made me ache to see him this upset for no clear reason. Despite the tears, we did have some fun - like on the wagon ride - yay!
and when we checked out the tractor...
But, honestly, more often than not, we were accompanied by this guy.
I thought {and still think} that maybe he was getting sick, but he seemed pretty happy most other times of the weekend. To add insult to injury {or maybe vice versa} Asher did have a slip and fall on the hardwood floors on Saturday morning - which I'm sure didn't help. See his fat little lip - poor bugaboo!
Beyond his cranky tearful episodes, he has also been having extraordinary separation anxiety recently. We actually got called out of church to get him from the nursery yesterday which never happens. When Drew and I went to get him he was hysterically crying and calling for "mama, mama." Break. my. heart.
This might all just be a two year old phase or it might be molars coming in, but I'm worried it's more than that, so we're heading to the pediatrician tonight for an ear check. Wish us luck {and, if he's not sick, for the Christmas spirit to fill Asher with good cheer!}
Anyone else dealing with extra separation anxiety right now? I'm hoping it's just a phase!
Poor Ash! I sure hope he feels better soon.
ReplyDeleteAt least if it's an ear infection is can be cured with a few doses of medicine. (trying to look on the [little itty bitty] bright side)
:)
One of those fun stages we'll wish we were at again someday!?! Hang in there Momma! Just chalk it up to the fact that he knows how much his Momma loves him ;)
ReplyDeleteUgh! I know how you feel. Poor P just had a major episode of separation anxiety today for the very first time. It was heart breaking. Hopefully, this will be a short lived phase for their sakes and ours.
ReplyDeleteI haven't encountered this ... yet. At least not to this sort of extreme. I hope that Asher feels better FAST!!!! Hang in there, Momma!!!
