April 12, 2012 - Oh Dear!

Well, we had a good morning at mom and dad's.  Brig was right on schedule, ate well, and was a pretty happy boy.  I had everything packed and ready to go all at the right time and Brig was even awake and happy in the car for 20 minutes before he drifted off to sleep without a peep!  What a blissful ride says you? Oh no, says I!  At about lacombe he woke up and at about ponoka he started screaming and he screamed the whole way home.  I tried talking to him, covering his face so he'd go back to sleep, uncovering his face, singing primary songs, screaming primary songs over the yelling, etc.  I eventually resorted to turning up the radio really loud.  We got home and gave him something to eat.  That calmed him down a little.  Then I realized he had a very messy diaper.  I'm not sure if the messy diaper woke him up or if the screaming caused the messy diaper.  Anyway, eventually he got fed and changed and went down for a 3 hour nap!  It was so good to have Joe come home from work and have our little family together again.  I sure love my boys!
