A Long Night...

Where do I begin...last night was a long one!
At first Riley didn't want to go to sleep--teeth maybe? We can't get our fingers into the back of his mouth too often to check, but we know that he has had molars on the verge of breaking through the gums for quite some time. He finally fell asleep an hour after we started to put him to bed (after motrin and some snuggling with mom)...but then Mason woke up screaming. He screamed and screamed. I finally gave in and nursed him (AGAIN) and put him back down. He slept for 15 minutes, maybe, and woke up screaming again. We gave him motrin and snuggled and put him down and he slept until 1:30, at which point he was screaming for the third time. More motrin and a big of snuggling and he was out--I moved him into his crib (he was out cold), but as soon as his little body hit the mattress he was awake and SCREAMING-AGAIN!!!!!! So I ended up sleeping (if you want to call it that) with him on the sofa.
Well-just got a glimpse of his lower gums and there appear to be two little teeth that are about to make their grand entrance-no wonder he was so cranky last night! I pray that they come in quickly!!! Thank goodness I didn't have to work today or I would have been useless!
