We went to State College this weekend to visit with Mick and Joyce and see Penn State beat Oregon State. The ride up was a bit long as we were driving in considerable rain thanks to Hanna. Both boys were pretty well behaved though.
Hunter loves visting Mickey and Joyce and playing with all the new toys! 
Since TJ is also in school now, he was nice enough to spend his weekend with us and play with Hunter and Luke. Hunter was in heaven.
We have been having a really difficult time with Hunter lately on a number of fronts. The worst has been bedtime. He is determined not to sleep and will either throw a monster tantrum or just sit at the top of the stairs until it is time for us to sleep and we turn out all the lights. Kerry was traveling this past week and I had my hands full. One night he only fell asleep on my bedroom floor after I went to sleep at 10pm. Friday night he threw a tantrum and by 9:30 I was exhausted and went to bed. Kerry got home around 10pm to find him asleep at the top of the stairs.
So at Mick and Joyce's we tried to get him in his pjs at 8pm when he started a tantrum. It was horrible and didn't end until 9:30 when he finally fell asleep on the floor (without pjs on). He slept there until 12:30am when he woke again, screaming (I believe it started as a night terror) and didn't end for 30 minutes. I have a doctor's appointment for Luke at the end of the month and I am going to talk to the doctor and see if I should schedule an appointment for Hunter. This situation is just completely out of control, he isn't getting the sleep he needs and neither are we!
We ended our trip with the drive home, and we learned an important lesson, no dairy during road trips. Hunter got sick yet again in the car after a trip to Brewster's ice cream in Gettysburg. This time though we had the left over milk shake cup and we put it to good use. What a weekend!!
