Last night was just plain awful. Addy had two good nights sleep since coming home but last night was not the case. She fought going to sleep. Once she'd get to sleep and I'd put her in her room, it wasn't 5 minutes later and she would be screaming bloody murder. She has never done this before. We've always been able to read stories, turn on her music and she would go to sleep on her own. I really think having to hook her up to her O2 is messing her up. She cries and cries when I put it on her at night. I really don't think I'd be able to get it on her once she's asleep without waking her up but I'm willing to try at this point. I finally got her to sleep at 3am and she stayed asleep. I am beyond exhausted today. There was no way I couldn't go to work, I've missed too much and I'm so far behind. Can't justify the loss of pay either :( So I trudged along but not very well, my communication skills were less than desirable today. Thank goodness I was only conducting meetings and doing a little testing, not working with a child's communication skills today!
My friend, Deborah, and I are heading to Kansas City at 4am so I'm going to bed once Scott is home. I could seriously fall asleep right now!

Ugh indeed! Praying for good sleep for all!
I hope you ALL got some rest and enjoy your weekend. Sending love across the miles.
Hope you get rest soon...both of you.
Wow! Hopefully she'll get used to wearing it soon.
You know, this is the second blog I've read this morning that talked about their young child using oxygen at night. This is something Beth never had to do. I'd never even heard of it.
Why are so many kids with Ds being put on oxygen?
