the cause

No, not the cause for Samantha eating the toothbrushes (we know that reason - she's "special")
The last few nights have been pure H E double hockey sticks with Luke's sleeping. And that may be the understatement of the year. Last night he even got as far as coming up to our bedroom and climbing into bed with me before I woke. Well, I woke AS he was climbing into bed. We've spent the last 2 nights on the couch together.
Anyways, I digress. The REASON (well, partial reason) for the sleep disturbances, aside from the trasitioning of the bed is that he is sick. He had a temp of over 102 last night and it only went to just above 100 this morning. So, he got a trip to the doc. We were convinced he had an Ear Infection b/c he's been digging in his ears the last few days. However, the doctor found some sores on his gums and throat that led him to believe that Luke has Coxsackie. It's viral, and he has a mild case. But he's contagious as long as he has a fever and he thought it would break tomorow or the next day. Other symptoms are sleep issues, the sores and a couple other things.
So, hopefully he'll be back to his silly self soon. Anyhoo, that's the update for now.
