The past several nights O-Dog has been suffering from night terrors. I remember Big D having them around this same age so I knew what it was, but it doesn't make it any easier.
He wakes up crying and he is usually standing next to his bed or sitting up. When I approach him he tries to get away from me and looks at me like I have bugs crawling on my face or like he is looking right through me. I can feel his little heart beating out of his chest. The whole time he is crying, it is not like a little owiee cry, it is a terrified cry. It takes him a while to calm down and by then it has woken up Big D too. Last night when it happened Ryan wasn't home and he had the worst one so far. Big D was really worried about him and was nearly in tears about it all. If you know Big D at all, you know that he is very sensitive to others feelings.(at times)
Last night it was a total of 3 times. Between his night terrors and Miss P's nightly cry when she has to go potty, I am drained. I need a nap.
I don't know how many more nights of this I can handle.
Of course he remembers nothing of it all, so the next morning when I ask him why he was crying he says, "I wasn't crying."
I am tempted to video him, just so I have the proof.
I had my ultrasound today, and found out that we will be adding a baby brother to the Lewis crew.
As most people know I was hoping for a girl, a sister for Miss P. I am now wrapping my mind around the idea of another boy. Ryan is thrilled with the thought of his own four-some for golf.
I am getting used to it. It gets easier when I look at his sweet little profile and imagine holding him in my arms.
Now comes the difficult task of choosing a name!

Have you all seen these adorable things???? Even though Miss P got a tutu for Christmas and refuses to put it on, I want her to have one of these. So adorable!
And if the next one is a girl maybe she will appreciate it!
