All through the night...

Last night started out pretty promising...both kids fell asleep on the way home from College Station, and so we thought we were ahead of the game.  Then, at 1 AM, Noble woke up screaming and was so exhausted but SOOOOOOO hard to get back down.  With that accomplished, we hopefully went back to sleep...only to wake up an hour later to Kayci crying in the next room.  Her ear hurt--by the way, why does it ONLY happen on Friday nights?  So I went in there to cuddle with her.  That lasted for a couple of hours, until Nobley woke up again at 4, unable to breathe for all of the snot.  Sorry, it's the truth.  He was so fussy, I finally got up and took him outside around 5 for a change of scene.  We came back in to watch the news at 5:30, and he finally fell asleep on the couch with me about 6.  And then, of course, at 6:19 Kayci came out of her room, crying.  Anyone relate to this?  

The silver lining--we got to cuddle in bed and watch our new favorite family show, "Opportunity Knocks."  We've got a call in to the doctor and have cancelled our Fair on the Square plans (darn it!).  Daddy took pity on Kayci and went to the donut store to pick up breakfast, and now we're all piled in our bed again, watching "Camp Rock."  Hopefully at least a couple of us will be able to take a nap this morning.  Sigh.  Well, gotta run--time for our Saturday morning Skype call to the kids.  Hope everyone's well where you are!
