Fried Brain

Last Friday was one of the worst days with Logan so far. I got home from work and he was already fussy. We had a dinner reservation with friends and were hoping for the best as we did not find a babysitter in time. But of course Logan had to become a complete monster this night. He refused to eat and drank only a little bit before we left home for dinner. At the restaurant he started acting up and decided to completely freak out during the meal. We had him with us for dinner often in the past. I have never experienced something like this. Never ever. If I would have enough hair left, I would have ripped it out that night.
The last 15 minutes at the restaurant Logan was like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hide. He turned from Monster into the sweetest child. But the damage was already done. Simone and I were completely done. When we got home we gave him a bottle and put him to bed. He fell asleep almost instantly. It was 8.30 PM and I usually work for another hour or two, but my brain was fried. I went to bed and almost immediately fell asleep. I have not been mentally exhausted that much in a very long time. A screaming baby like I had to experience - that is the best form of protecting yourself against having a baby.
