This was in late November or early December I think. I remember these little green overalls and bundling her into the sling or baby carrier in these because right around Finn's bedtime, and 6.30 or 7pm, her witching hour would start, coinciding perfectly with the time of day when I was most exhausted. So, howling, I would take her for a walk through our neighbourhood, leaves crunching, wind blowing, she would be bundled so tightly against me that I could barely see her face, just a little space for her to breathe the cold air. I fully confess that while she was crying, I had on my ipod, volume up. After ten minutes or so, she would be fast asleep.
