O Holy Night

We had another rough night last night.  I thought the night before was bad because she was up crying about every two hours, but last night was definitely worse.  Mostly she would go right back to sleep if I picked her up and held her for a minute.  Last night, as soon as I laid her back down she would start crying again.  We ended up coming to the living room about 6:30 this morning since I sleep did not seem like it was an option.  I let her play for a little while and then laid down on the couch with her on my chest.  She finally gave it up about 7:15 and we slept there until a little after 9:00.  The phone woke me up, but I could not get up to answer it so I don't know who it was...oh well.  I think she is just having trouble breathing and sleeping at the same time.  She had a fever yesterday which started at 101.5 and was down to around 99 degrees last night.  I tried to take it at about 3:00 this morning when she was up screaming, but one thermometer wasn't working and the other only got up to 98.9.  So, I didn't give her anymore Tylenol at that point.  I need to take it this morning, but she is playing in the floor so I thought I would take a minute to eat breakfast and update everyone on how our week is going.  I really appreciate a healthy baby now.  Then we are all able to get our much needed sleep so that we can have the energy to make it through the day.  I hope today goes as well as yesterday.  While she is cranky at night, she is a joy during the day.  I am grateful for that.  Well, I better get back to her and go check her temperature.  Clint has also been sick this week so I am not getting much help from him because he doesn't want to spread his germs to her...too late.  Anyways, I will be happy when everyone is well again.  Then I'll probably end up sick....I hope not.
