It's time to get up!

Alarm blaring, crying, puking, kids fighting, these are just a few of the ways I have been awakened from a good nights rest.
Yesterday though....we had a couple drastically different wake up calls.
First off at about 5am Dallin comes running in our room with blood all over his face. Poor kid looked like he had been shot. After cleaning off his whole face it was determined that he just had a pretty bad bloody nose. He has never had one before and was therefore freaking out about it. We had blood all over our bathroom floor. It looked like a crime scene. After calming him down and stopping the bleeding we all went back to sleep.
One hour later Nate jumps out of bed screaming and hitting his ear with his hand. He was yelling, "There is a BUG in my ear! It hurts! It hurts! It hurts!" I couldn't stop laughing. I really was concerned about him but honestly.....the way he was dancing around shaking his head, I couldn't help myself. I thought maybe he had been having some sort of crazy dream or something. He said he could feel it crawling around and buzzing it's wings deep down his ear canal. I get the heeby jeebies just thinking about it again! He started spraying water in his ear and I ran to get the bulb syringe. A couple of good sucks later we got the teeny little beetle out.
This isn't a great picture, but that is the bug on the ledge. SICK!


After that, we were up for the day.
