Another Long NIght

We had Brenna stay the night last night while Bill and Tiffany went out.  Brenna was great.  She had fun at church, ate a great dinner, and overall was really easy to have here.  The only trouble was when she woke up screaming at 10:30 last night, but even that was not too big of a deal.  It was funny that when I had her lay back down she almost laid down on Lily.  Still, that was very easy.

Noah, on the other hand, didn't do as well.  He woke up with a terrible chest cough.  It was so bad that Amanda thought he was having trouble breathing.  She brought him into bed with us, which is always a disaster for us, but comforting for him.  The cutest part happened when he had a nasty barking cough, sat up in bed, and then said, "Excuse me!"  Amanda put him back to bed after his cough settled down and he did fine for the rest of the night. Unfortunately, he was still up at 7:00 along with the girls.

The good news for us is that Tiffany is due to arrive here at 4:30 so Amanda and I can go to dinner and dancing.  We've been looking forward to this for a while.  It's always nice to get out sans kids.
