Off I wandered down the hall and into her room to find her grinning and playing with her toes. Why was she awake I thought. ??? Then it occurred to me, of course, she's sick and teething! Oh how I HATE teething. So down the stairs we went to watch a movie (normally I would have just layed her back down and forced her to sleep..but once Sage is awake, she's awake..for 2 more hours!) So at 2am..I trudged back up the stairs with my now sleepy child..fed her..gave her some tylenol and went back to bed.
4:30. I peel one eye open to look at the clock and then roll out of bed for the not first, but second time since I put Sage back to bed. She'd lost her binky. Plop..back in the mouth..and back to bed I went.
In my naive little mind I thought, "Sage usually sleeps for 10 hours..so technically since she went to bed at 2 she should sleep until noon or so..wrong. At her usual wake up time, 7:30, she was wide awake. Why? I don't know. But today I feel like crap, can't sleep, and right now she's crashed in her crib.
End of story.

I can't tell you how comforting your story was. :) Ha! Even though Adelynn's not teething yet, there are some nights where she can be wide awake and wake up numerous times for her binki. I feel like a zombie the next day because I get like 1 hour intervals here and there all night. Thanks for sharing the fun story!
Oh how I hate nights like that. Sad they happen more often than I would like them too. I hope you get your rest and sage's teeth come through quick for both of your sakes!
Hope her gets feeling better. I can sympathize with you. I had many sleepless nights with the croup. Thats nasty wicked stuff. But the picture makes her look like the angel she is.
