Sick little guy!

We've been pretty lucky this first year of Landons life, he hasn't really been sick, we have a a few colds, but nothing that he couldn't shake in a day or two.  That was until Friday, he started running a fever after his afternoon nap. I assumed that the fever was coming from his 1 year immunizations that he had on Monday. Nope I was wrong, poor guy has double ear infections and a cold.

Its absolutely heart breaking to see my little guy in pain, not being able to get comfortable asleep or awake. We have had 2 sleepless nights so far, Saturday night Jon and I took shifts, I took the first and at 3:30 am Jon took over. Poor Landon would just wake up screaming, and  inconsolable crying, I'm guessing its the pain from the ear infections. The only thing that seems to calm him down is one of us holding him and sleeping near him. Jon had sick duty last night, Its my turn tonight.

Its crazy how sleep doesn't matter when it comes to Landon, I could and would stay up all night, if it meant that he could sleep comfortably.  My heart just aches knowing that hes hurting. I'm hoping for a peaceful night for him. Lesson learned just don't assume, this was one of those times were an instruction manual would have really helped out, and saved a lot of time!!

It snowed this weekend!!!!! Its always so exciting when we get snow here in North Carolina. We get snow, just no that often. It started around 12:00 pm Saturday and ended around 6 pm. We got about 3 inches! Its was soo pretty, Landon, Jon and I popped in a CD of our favorite Christmas music, and sang and decorated the Christmas tree. I loved it!!! There is just something about snow, its so peaceful, Its almost as if everything stops for a bit, people stop and nature is still. The world seems so clam, Its just beautiful!! I Love snow, especially when its the Christmas season. I cant remember ever having a white Christmas. Maybe this year!!!
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas!
