Rough times for Miley

Poor Miss Miley not only is cutting her canines right now but has gotten a cold, and fell and bit her lip yesterday, of course on the side that I can actually see the tooth just under the gum. The poor thing really hasn't slept much since last Thursday night. Friday night we were up from 1-4 and Saturday she looked like a walking Zombie but wouldn't relax enough to take a good long nap. Total for the day I think we got in an hour and a half's worth of naps from her. Her eyes were watery and half open, her nose was runny and her gums were quite swollen. Saturday night- tossing and turning and screaming out in the night in pain- VERY crabby on Sunday- not all day but she had her moments, which seemed like most of the day- woke up from a nap screaming and didn't stop for a good half hour and didn't want a THING to do with me- arched her back and everything- only wanted her Nana. Sunday night- sleepless- we only got 5 hours- she got close to 8 hours but very interrupted by screams of pain from her mouth. We've been giving her pain reliever and it wasn't until I remembered to pull out the Orajel at 3am on Monday morning did we all sleep well, well, until I had to get up at 5 to get ready for work.

Last night she slept pretty good, I ended up bringing her to our bed at 1:30 because she was just awake and I was too exhausted to sit and rock with her to get her back to sleep. But today the cold came on, coughing, really runny nose, no appetite. But when we got home I let her choose a snack and she chose applesauce and ate a cup of that all by herself, then she actually, finally, ate a good dinner, good meaning a good amount, not so much on the healthy side, but who wants to eat healthy when they are super sick, she enjoyed some of Schwan's new fried green beans (which we bake to not add extra grease) she LOVES to dip those in ranch! Then she ate a chicken nugget and a Jo-Jo. Yummy convenient food we call that! Fresh from the toaster oven in 15 minutes! Then it was bath time and I KNOW she wasn't feeling well when she just sat still for her whole bath, normally she is all over the tub and acting like a crazy woman and tonight, she just sat and relaxed. Then fifteen minutes later she was out like a light at 7:10. I'm just praying that she'll sleep well through the night, she can't get better if she continues to be sleep deprived.

So, needless to say, with not feeling well pictures haven't been something we've been able to do. But do enjoy this cute video we got of her tonight in the 10 minutes she was feeling good after her yummy dinner. She learned a new dance move! :)
