My day improved - DH came home and took over and Bailey immediately gave him smiles and giggles - LOL!!! Bridg you were dead right, I just needed to hand him to someone else, my own frustration and tiredness was just making it worse, Luckily DH finishes work at 3pm everyday. Amy I think you were spot on too, but I hadn't considered the tiredness as he'd had a THREE hour morning nap (this is unusually long) and a few cat naps, but I think he was just having a sleepy day - I think in the middle of a growth spurt in hindsight as had been feeding HEAPS yesterday... so needed some extra sleep

Frustrating to only work this out in hindsight - at the time logic goes out the window sometimes but hey, next time he has a day/afternoon like this I will be better equipped, this motherhood gig is a continued learning curve isn't it?

DOH to me
