Poor Amanda is teething in earnest, and wants to nurse around the clock. She gets especially cranky after 4pm, when I'm trying to make dinner, and will cry every time I try to set her down. After a long day of two fussy, teething kids (Eva is cutting a bruiser of a molar right now), I tend to get a little stressed. Eva is constantly asking to “hold sister” when she cries, and while it’s cute, it tends to make things worse. I thought getting out of the house a lot would help, but I'm usually carrying Amanda around in the sling the whole time because she hates her car seat / infant carrier with a passion. I don't know why. Eva didn't mind the car seat, and used to go right to sleep whenever we drove somewhere, but Amanda screams bloody murder if you leave her in her seat too long, so we use it only in the car.
