We figured out what was causing Megan's recent sleep issues, she is cutting her 5-year molars. Based on the timing of the rest of her teeth we didn't expect these to start making an entrance until she was at least 6, but here they are coming in before she turns 5. Maybe it is the diet change and now her body is struggling less with processing things, who knows. All of the signs were there, we just didn't put it together: her teething induced reflux started up again, excessive drooling returned, biting her fingers/hands so much that she was leaving bruises, messing with her ears, waking up crying. Once we started giving her something for the pain she went back to sleeping through the night. She has been up for the past 2 nights due to something we fed her on Sunday, so we are waiting for it to be out of her system. Ugh!
Megan was in the laundry room with me last week and she helped me get the clothes out of the dryer and then she took the clothes out of the washer (we have a front loading washer) and put them into the dryer by herself. It was so adorable watching her grab something, take a couple of side steps and then put it into the dryer. Every few items she wanted to start taking stuff out of the dryer and putting it back into the washer. She is at the perfect height for this task and man did she enjoy it.
