Rough night

We had one rough night last night. Eli seems to have come down with a cold, weather its a real cold, or teething its not fun. He is coughing up a storm and last night was no exception. I went out before he went down to bed to do some birthday shopping for Andy, so Eli was in bed by the time I got home. When we finally went to bed, we heard Eli start crying and then he did something he's never done before "Mommy!! Mommy!!" He cried out. Of course I had to go to him. I pulled him out of his crib and cuddled him for a bit then put him back to bed. A few minutes later he started crying again. Andy went to him this time. After being put back down after a few times he was still crying so I got up with him and cuddled on the rocking chair.  After putting him back to bed he was okay for a few minutes and then cried. This went on all night. We didnt go to him because he just gets more wound up in the end and the result is the same... he cries himself back to sleep. He must've woken up every hour crying, and each time I woke up and just listened to him cry. Needless to say we were both quite tired come early this morning.

By his nap time he was more than ready to go down. We'll see what happens though, he's already woken up once crying and then fell back asleep. I think he's just so overtired that he needs a really good sleep. Poor kid.
