In Which Connor Has Hilarious Dreams

Connor seems to be having some fantastic dreams tonight; every twenty minutes or so he bursts into peals of laughter.  I went in and checked on him the last time it happened and he was fast asleep with an enormous smile on his face.  I'm glad he's having such a good time; maybe if he has those sorts of dreams more often he'll actually want to sleep through the night!

Oh-- wait-- he's awake now.  I think he laughed so loudly he actually managed to wake himself up.  Guess the Dreams So Awesome They Make You Laugh Sleeping Technique has a major flaw. 

The little guy had one seizure today that lasted about a minute and was considerably less violent than the last couple of seizures we've seen.  However, that blows my one-a-week hopes out of the water.  We were a couple of hours late on his morning medication because we somehow managed to sleep through our alarm, so that might have triggered it.  We'll just have to see how the rest of the weekend goes.

Connor had the seizure about midday and then slept for several hours afterwards, so him waking up in the middle of the night isn't all that unexpected.  We took the rest of the day easy and ended up spending the evening watching a (gasp!) movie together as a family.  Normally television isn't our idea of family time, but little guy didn't really have the energy for a whole lot else, so we indulged him for once.

Some days just need to be lazy days!

Lazy days are definitely needed sometimes. Especially after a night spent laughing! I hope he has more good dreams tonight, but not SO good that they wake him up! :-P
