What a Night

This is the face of one VERY haggard woman......
And this is the culprit!
Last night around midnight Brady woke up crying and was super pathetic. Well, we didn't know what was wrong, but when Zac went and checked on him he couldn't calm Brady down and then when he left the room Brady just starts crying uncontrollably....not really screaming just REALLY upset. So, I went in there I tried to comfort him and the only thing that seemed to work is for me to curl my cumbersome body up around him in the toddler bed. He finally shut his eyes but every 15 - 30 seconds he would crack them open to make sure I was still there. Anytime I tried to leave he just was terrified. Well, we decided to put him in our bed and he was dreaming and kicking and crying in his sleep....Oh my gosh, he kicked me right in the Adam's Apple...twas painful. Finally at 3 am we gave it up and Brady hops out of bed and runs to the couch where he sat until 5 am. Now his eyes are all watery and his nose is runny and I'm just trying to survive because OF COURSE this would be a day where Zac is at work for 24 hours!
So, I'm thinking he was having nightmares and also bad allergies. It's so sad that he would be having nightmares....I mean, what are they of? THe only things that he's scared of are nursery, the vaccuum cleaner, and Aunt Robin's little Lolly!

Oh man! I'm so sorry we're not there! I wish I could help!

Hopefully we'll be home in a couple of days.

Love y'all!

Poor little Brady, but I feel mostly for you. Last night Jaida started screaming all of a sudden, but I think it was b/c she woke herself up by hitting her head at the end of the crib.

Poor little shaver - could he be getting molars? Haley has done that a couple times b/c of those monstrosities.
