Parker, Char, and Colton Lybbert

Sleep is for the weak.

Let me give you a run down of our Wednesday night/Thursday morning....

11pm I give Paxton his last feeding of the night expecting him to sleep five hours like he has done the last few nights.

2:20 am Paxton wakes up and I'm mad I'm up after just three hours. Parker comes to bed after getting off work at 1am and finishing up some homework.

2:30am Colton starts screaming like we have never heard him scream before. Parker gets up to check on him and reports he is running a fever.

2:45am I finish feeding Paxton, puts him back in the pac'n'play and heads out to take Colton's temperature which read 102 out of his armpit.

3:00am I call the pediatrician because I have never dealt with a fever before. She tells me to give him Tylenol and Motrin because his fever is on the high side. I don't have any Motrin, she said the gas station is open 24 hours.

3:10am I leave for the gas station because Colton is clinging to Parker. I open the garage door to find myself heading out into blizzard like conditions. I freeze the whole way to the gas station because I didn't have time to wait for the car to warm up.

4am Get Colton settled back down to sleep.

4:10am Parker and I crawl back into bed.

6am Paxton wakes up needing to be fed. He takes a VERY large feeding.

6:08 am Paxton starts dry heaving.

6:09am Paxton succeeds at throwing up, ALL OVER ME.

6:09am and 1 second Parker flies out of bed because he thinks breast milk is foul and he doesn't want a single drop on him.

6:10am Parker helps me clean up both Paxton and myself (we both needed a full change of clothes).

6:15am We all get settled back to bed.

8:15am Paxton wakes up because he is starving.

Last night was awesome.
