It's a few minutes shy of 3 am. Ella's been up for 3 hours. She's perfectly happy if she's sitting up or lying on me and babbling, but as soon as I lie down to try and sleep, she screams and smacks me. It was so bad that Robert got up at 1:30 and told me to get some sleep - that he'd try and get her down. He came back to get me an hour later, handing me said awake child and said, "I think something's wrong with her" - like, "Jen, she's broken and I can't fix her, here."

So 3/4 tsp of Motrin later and we're still sitting here in the den, so as not to wake the rest of the family.

She's got a little cold, so I'm thinking ear infection maybe, but I have no idea. I thought that last week and the doctor said her ears were fine, but now she's got the cold, so maybe she does have an infection. I dunno. I don't think it's teething because she's not drooly like she normally is when she's getting a tooth, and not really gumming stuff at all. I foresee a pediatrician visit in the next few hours. They don't make pediatric Ambien, do they?

Susan, this just may be your chance. Make me an offer. ;-)
