Babies and waking up on the wrong side of the bed

We all have days where you just wake up in a bad mood. Nothing wrong with that but as adults we know usually how to get our day back on track. What do y’all do with your kids though when they wake up in bad mood. My son some days and they are rare though that doesn’t make them any less frustrating just wakes up in a bad mood. He’ll literally wake up crying and from then on it’s just crying. The door didn’t open cry, the cat didn’t stop to let you pet her cry, no one greeted you when you walked in the room cry, took mom an extra 2 seconds to cut up the apple cry. We used to just tough it out till nap time, Iv tried to put him back to sleep. I don’t always have an hour to lay there and pat his butt till he’s asleep again. Any advice?
