The day from hell!

So the day was HELL!!! PURE HELL! Wesley cried from 1pm until he went to bed at 7pm! I mean full out screaming! Can I say that we got home from the docs today at 12:30, I put both the kids down for a nap, and Wes was up at 12:45 screaming. Woke Aurora up, and they stayed up and NEVER took a nap the whole day until they went to bed!

I am SPENT! I seriously am a walking zombie! Its so tough to take care of a sick kid, but to take care of a sick baby with bronchitis and then Aurora adjusting and having med increases all this week, I seriously feel OVERWHELMED!

Wesley has been asleep at 7pm and has already gotten up 3 times! Its going to be such a LONG night!

On a good note, I raised Aurora's Keppra back up to the 2.5ML tonight, so far so good. I gave her a Vitamin B6 that the neuro recommended to help offset the horrible sideeffects! She had some snack, her vitamin and a glass of orange juice and some tylenol...

So far she is sleeping like a ROCK!!!!! So I pray she gets a good night sleep tonight, she needs it!!!!

And poor Wes.. I dont know what to do for him. All he wants to do is Breastfeed. He has BF so much today I am like a dry well!!!! He will nurse, and I will give him his paci, which usually he will snuggle up and fall asleep, NOPE not this week. Instead he takes his Paci out and THROWS it, and looks for more boob! I dont know if he is nursing so much because he just doesnt feel good and its comforting? Or if he is going through a growth spurt at the same time as being sick!

All I know is that I am literally drained... dead to the world tired! I havent even ate dinner yet and its 9:30~

So I suppose I should get something to eat! Cross your fingers that we have a quiet peaceful night! Aw, it would be heaven!

Megan...you are an amazing mother and a very STRONG woman. You have had a very long Summer and now fall! I don't know how but you manage to still smile and laugh all the way through it! You inspire me! I love you to death and I am so glad we talk all the time! I would be lost without that!
