Are we Sleepy Yet?
Last night Carter and I went to Sleep Study number 3. It was just as miserable as all the previous ones. This time he was actually scared and refused to let go of my hand for 2 hours. So, there I stood at the side of his crib for 2 hours, praying that he would just fall fast asleep. He refused to sleep on his tummy because of all the wires, which really put a damper on things because this is how most of his sleep is at home. Only about 30 minutes last night were on his tummy. He actually spent 45 minutes sitting up in bed during the middle of the night, falling asleep a few times still sitting up. He woke at 5:00 am, at which time they said we could go because it did not look like he was going to go back down, and that they did get 3-4 hours of him sleeping, which should be enough. The tech said Carter had a lot of episodes during his sleep, which is really bad. Lots of episodes were what caused us to have the Mandibular Distraction... Tell me our two months of Hell last fall did some good. So now we will wait for the results. The tech said it usually takes about 3 weeks to to get the results, but she doubted it would take that long for Carters. I get it, just like last time. If it is a bad test, they must bump it up to the top to get read faster. Last time we heard from Dr. Muntz within a week. So, there you have it: Carter slept for about 3 hours, I slept for about 30 minutes, we came home and napped for 4 hours, and we are both going back to bed now. Sweet dreams my little man!!
Cool new blanket Carter got from the hospital!
Scout must go everywhere!
Carter tried to pick at the ones on his head, so they had to mummify him.
All Done!! (Yet still very weary...)
Safe and sound in the car, he will now smile!

I like the last picture too. It must be the chipmunk teeth and cheeks.
