DD has been super clingy and cranky for the past couple weeks. Her last molar finally came in so I know they're not bothering her. I feel like I'm at my wits end today. I *need* to sit down at my laptop to look over our budget today to see what we can trim to save for the down payment on a house. She flips out. She is just in mood lately where we can't do anything without holding/wearing her. I'm fine with it normally, but the computer I can't sit at ever. That bothers me. She will crawl up on my lap and start slamming keys. DS already broke two off and it's not even two years old. She eats like a fiend in addition to all of the nursing sessions. I just don't know what's going on with the constant yanking and climbing on me and the crying and screaming. She's generally independent and happy. Up to recently she's been the complete opposite of DS. I don't know what's going on with her. But I'm having a hard time with it today especially since I'm really itching to sit down with our budget. I really want to be in a house that we own by the end of the year.
Re: Need to vent for a moment
ouch.. sounds very frustrating
wish there was something I could say/ do that would help ya lol other than finding things to keep her occupied while you go over budget. Orrr if its the computer that she is especially trying to take your attention from, is it possible to print a copy of your budget? Then you could at least keep her from breaking any more keys! lol Thats just crazy, I tried to clean my keyboard once and took me forever to pop all the keys off.. took even longer to put them back lol. If I were closer I'd totally offer up a few hours to watch them while you get a minute to take care of business ;] Hope your day gets better!
Growth spurt?
I don't get computer time either unless DS is asleep because he's attacking the keyboard or trying to throw the mouse on the floor or if I'm on my laptop he's closing it. I do most of my fb/bumping/email from my phone now.
I was just about to post this exact same thing (minus the molars). DS has been a cranky needy little handful lately. I can never even hint at going near my computer. He's constantly climbing on me, touching me, pulling on me, etc. I totally feel your pain. Obviously I have no advice since I'm in the same boat.
It sucks and I'm right there with ya.
