Zoe didn't nap on the way back from our drive north, and as a result was much too tired when we put her to bed a 7:30. at 8:30 she woke up with the worst night terrors yet. I spent over 20 minutes trying to console a screaming baby, finally Bruce came up and we tried to do it together.. we tried things to wake her up, she was really still asleep, stuck in this terror rut... it just seemed to get worse. We just wanted to reset her and restart the sleep. Finally we took her downstairs to watch a Dora, but shock.. she didn't even want to watch that.. she said "Tired".. We took her back upstairs to our bed, I told her a Dora story (I have two "episodes" in my repertoire now).. and she fell back to sleep.
She had another night terror last night, but it was much shorter lived, and went away on her own (although I was cuddling her then too).
She does have a head cold, I don't know if that contributes to these or not. She's also been around too much arguing and I feel a little guilty about that too.
