A night in the life of a mommy (and in "night" I am referring to last night and in "mommy" I am referring to me).
8:00pm Quiet house...Angel and I finally having a conversation about our day.
8:20pm Ignacio wakes up crying and I go it to lay with him.
8:30pm Ignacio is in our bed.
9:00pm Ignacio wakes up wailing with a cough and runny nose all over. Vicks applied. Boogers wiped.
10:00pm Ignacio wakes up again requesting we remove his socks...socks removed.
12:00am Angel comes to bed. Ignacio up coughing. We make warm milk with honey.
1:00am Ignacio up talking about dinosaurs and the sort. We have no idea.
2:30am Emilio wakes up crying. He is burning up. Temp at 104.2.
2:32am Motrin given and I wake Angel up who freaks out at the temp.
2:40am Applying cold wet rags to Emilio's body.
2:45am On the phone with the nurse line.
2:50am Ignacio wakes up and comes walking into Emilio's room.
3:00am Ignacio returned back to his room and Emilio is wide awake.
3:15am Angel takes Emilio and I lay down with Ignacio who is awake again.
4:12am Angel brings Emilio back in our room...he is wide awake.
4:20am I am in with Emilio and he nurses but stays awake....we spend some time looking at each other.
4:30am I cut a deal with Angel that we will take shifts sleeping with Emilio in his room. He goes to be with Emilio.
5:30am Angel comes in the room...Emilio woke up.
5:45am Emilio finally falls asleep in my arms...I lay on the floor with him cradled in my arms.
6:30am Ignacio wakes up ready for the day as if nothing happened last night.
6:45am Emilio wakes up.
6:46am We are all up.
Turns out that Ignacio checked out "okay" at the clinic. Emilio, poor baby has double ear infections. So miserable. My little one. Angel and I are exhausted but we should have one more hard night and then we should be on the mend. I, amazingly am feeling fine. MOMMY POWER! (knock on wood)
