Ever Find Yourself Bargaining With a 2 Month Old?

It went something like this:

R: {crying}

Me: R, PLEEEEASE stop crying. {gives her the paci, continue to try and load the dishwasher}

R: {spits out paci, more crying}

Me: C'mon, R. Stop for just 20 minutes. {insert paci, continue to load dishwahser}

R: {spits out paci, more and louder crying}

Me: What's the matter, baby? How about 10 minutes? I just need to finish cleaning up dinner. Can you just give me 10 minutes? { insert paci, turn swing on, continue to load dishwasher}

R: {spits out paci, full on wailing}

Me: 5 minutes, R. Just 5 minutes? Then I promise I'll hold you or feed you or whatever you want. Just please stop crying! {insert paci, continue to load dishwasher}

R: {more wailing}

Me: Fine! You win!

So I made her a bottle, took her out of the swing, sat down to feed her and...

SHE FELL ASLEEP!!!
How can you argue with a face like that?

(these were taken this morning, as in BEFORE the crying fit)

  1. She's so beautiful! Personally, I wouldn't even attempt the dishes. I'd just sit and stare at her. :)
