I want Summer back!!!!

:-( How sad... Summer is still in pain from her shots. Last night I got home and looked at her legs, and the right leg, the one with two shots seemed a bit swollen, but not too bad. The left leg, though, OUCH...it was swollen and felt like it had a knot in it, kinda like your back when it's sore. She was crying and crying and I tried to rub/massage her leg, and she liked it for a moment, then cried, then seemed to help a little. I put some of her Tylenol in her nighttime bottle and we got her to sleep at about 11. She woke at 4 and 7 for her next feedings, which is fairly good, but not like JUST before her shots.

I left for work Monday morning and Summer was such the perfect baby. I saw a hint of her at the doctors office, before the shot, but ever since the needle went into her leg...she's back to her 1-2 week old self. :-( Her cries are now deafening again and she can go from a smile to full on wail in a split second.

Anyway, she hasn't had a good night's sleep since, but it seems she's getting closer. I gave her a little Tylenol this morning, as well, so, hopefully she can get back to sleep, so both her and Jess can get more rest. Yesterday she was bad from 3-7pm, when I got home... She has smiled and has watched some Baby Einstein videos, so she's calming some. Today WILL be better! (Can I will it to be?)

Also, Tuesday was Mommy and Daddy's two year anniversary and Summer's Grand-parents came over to baby-sit! Yay!! Jess and I got to go out and have a nice romantic dinner. Thank you, Jess! That was the best surprise for a present!!! Thank you Gigi and Grumpa!!! We had a great time!

What I really want to show from that night, is Grumpa scanned a picture of Jess as a baby! Check it out:

Baby Jessica

Comparing that to pictures of Summer...now who does Summer look like? She's the spitting image of her Mommy, as far as we can tell! So, now I have to find some pics of me as a baby, but I don't think that will change anything. Thankfully, Summer is going to look like her much more atractive mother. :-)
