Everyone went to bed really well, but just as Paul and I went to bed Jude woke up crying at his door. We went in to see what was wrong because he never wakes up. We put him back to bed and then he got out of bed again crying. We put him back a few more times, then gave him some Tylenol just in case he was getting sick or teething. After that we decided he was safe, drugged up, and just needed to go back to bed, this is where the tiredness comes in.
We didn't want to just keep putting him in his bed for him, he needed to learn to go back into his bed on his own. We are thankful that he can't open his door yet so he stood at his door calling for DADA and MAMA and crying and crying and crying and crying and cryi.... you get the picture!
I don't know how long it lasted, maybe and hour, but it was loud and funny all at the same time. He woke up the other kids and I had to explain to Cici to just close her door so it wouldn't be so loud! We never had to do this with Beaner, so it has been awhile for us, Cici did this a lot, and when I say a lot, I mean like all the time!! So, with the lessons we had learned from Cici, we waited in our bed listening. Paul fell asleep ( I have no idea how he can do that!), and after about an hour I heard the cries get softer and softer and eventually they moved from the door to the bed and stopped. Yay! 1 lesson learned tonight, a million more to go!
oh, on a related note, Jude woke up this morning with a runny nose and a very hoarse voice! He is sick.
