Luke had an awful night last night. We think maybe he got water in his ears at the pool, 'cause something was bothering him. He woke up every 45 minutes to an hour almost all night long until the Mrs. gave him some Motrin and he settled down.

I had the alarm set to go to the gym, but woke up with a tension headache. I was up with him at least three times and the wife just about as many.

Those are just not the fun kind of parental nights. You have my sympathies on that one!

YIKES! Poor fella...

Earaches are the absolute worst, but thank Heaven for Motrin. It works much better than Tylenol for pain and for fevers (with my kids at least).

I'll pray that he sleeps well for you both tonight. Life is stressful enough without adding sleep deprivation to the mix.

Speaking of which, Baby Abigail's parents must be going through the roughest spot of sleeplessness just about now...

I remember all too well!!

Do you know the trick about putting a few drops of alcohol in each of his ears when he gets out of the pool. Don't know why it works, but it does!
