03/365 Sky Gazing from the Sandpit

by Zoey @ Good Googs on June 6, 2010

the toddler gazing up at the sky, waiting for rain

Burying feet in the sandpit is the perfect remedy for toddler teething. Especially, when lately teething seems to mean waking from bad nightmares halfway through her nap. She doesn’t get out of bed like she normally would after a nap. She stays lying down, hand in mouth, crying her heart out.

For, her, there are very few things that the great outdoors can’t cure, or at the very least act as a device of distraction for a short period of time. There were even a few planes while she was outside. One of her favourite things at the moment, along with dinosours and elmo.

    Poor darling! I hope her teeth cut through soon. This photo is just gorgeous!

    That’s what all my three sons have done at some point during their toddler years. They used to wake crying, and I soon realised they weren’t ready to get up. Sometimes it’s teeth, sometimes it’s just a dream that wakes them, and they’re so tired – crying is the only way to express it.

    Poor things. I feel bad when they wake crying like that.

    Good luck!

    A – Did you redesign a bit? I like it!
    B – 3 of 365? Did you start over or is this an older imported entry?

      Thanks! I sure did re-design – I figured after I decided to bring all the photo goog stuff back to here it deserved a bit of an upgrade.

      And I started over – given that I had entries on the 365project website and on this blog and the other one I decided a clean slate was the way to go.

        Good for you! I really should have started over when I took a break while moving this year. I skipped a month or two? I just resumed. I am pretty sure I’m going to do another year though.

    My 1yo is teething at the moment, he’s been doing a lot of laying in bed crying with his eyes shut not ready to get up. Poor things. He’s got 4 teeth coming through at the same time, the big vampire ones..ouch
