Judah is in a 'tickling' phase.
A few weeks ago, he decided that tickling was the best thing in the whole wide world. And now the instant he opens his eyes in the morning he shouts "Tickle me Mommy!"
I indulge him as much as possible but truth be told, I hate tickling. I hate his little fingers poking under my armpits, especially with my arms loaded up with groceries and a fat baby.
I hate him thrashing around wildly while I "tickle him to death", kicking my chest and occasionally butting my teeth with his hard head. He's at an age now that he can really throw a real force. It freaking hurts!
But every day must begin and end with tickling. And be punctuated with tickling episodes throughout.
And though I really hate it, how can I possibly deny Judah something that makes him wild with giggles and shriek with joy?
And speaking of phases that I'd like to see end soon...
Judah's been pooping during the night for the last 2 weeks. He'll wake up 1-2 times needing to poop. It seems to coincide with runny diarrhea like poop, but honestly, he doesn't poop for 8 hours during the day. It just seems to hit him at night.
This needs to STOP. We are tired.
