Sleepless Nights

By Jamie

I think I used this same heading for a posting when I was pregnant!  Now we're experiencing a totally different form of sleepless nights...very LOUD ones!!! Two nights ago, poor Mason was screaming & crying & fussing like we had never heard before!!  Finally, by 3:30AM, we packed him up in the car seat, and Jim drove him around the neighborhood!!  It worked so well, that he slept until Noon, ate half of a bottle, then slept until 5:00PM!!!  We still don't really know what was wrong...maybe gas, or maybe he was just really tired (obviously, based on how he slept afterwards).  I guess it's true that sometimes babies just cry!!! 

I'm not much of a writer, but I thought I would take these few minutes that I have in peace and quiet and remember all the fun times of 2010!  The biggies were finding out I was pregnant, finding out Sarah was pregnant, the births of the babies, vacations to Florida and Virginia Beach, family gatherings, birthdays and sporting events (the JAMIE JINX streak continues...sorry Bobcats!!!).  This blog has been fun to document all the great experiences, but of course there are always challenges and hard times in all our lives which I don't always document.  It's during both the good and bad that I have put my faith in my Lord and Savior, to trust Him in everything....after all, they're His plans, not mine.  So, now it's time to enjoy this final day of 2010, a gorgeous 60 degree day!!  I wish everyone a safe, happy, and FUN 2011!!!
