BooBoo

Well, Aiden has been having a tough week. He has not been sleeping well at all, it has been taking us a very long time to get him to sleep, and when he does fall asleep he doesn't stay down for very long before he is up again. In the middle of the night he has been getting up for a bottle again, and now instead of just going back to bed, he is up for anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours.

So we went to the doctor yesterday, he had been tugging on his ears and running a little bit of a fever so we thought he might have an ear infection. Well after the Doctor traumatized him cleaning the wax out of his ears (which the entire doctor's office got to hear while he screamed), she said his ears looked fine, but he might have a little bit of a cold.

So we have to run a mister over his bed and clean out his nose real good before he goes to bed. We did that last night and he did manage to sleep for 5 hours before getting up at 3:30 and was only up for 30 minutes before he let me put him back down in his crib, so that may be progress in the right direction.

But then in the afternoon Aiden was wandering around the living room with the tv and DVD remotes in his hands, suddenly he tripped and fell down with the two remotes. Somehow one of the remotes managed to fall just right to jam between the floor and Aiden's chin. Needless to say, Aiden's chin took the worst of the encounter, splitting Aiden's chin open. After the initial shock wore off, Aiden was more pissed off that I was trying to hold a towel to his chin to stop the bleeding than in actual pain. But he now has a nice little gash on his chin, his first "real" booboo.
