To all of my Blog Friends...

I'd REALLY appreciate your prayers right now.  My poor Landon is dealing with jet lag quite badly and is not sleeping well at night AT ALL.  We are usually up about 4-5 hours during the night with him crying - and its hard to figure out why he's crying...he seems so confused, like he's tired, but thinks he should be awake; thinking he's hungry; and just plain sad. 

Needless to say, its been a bit harder for Jason and I to get over our jet lag since none of us are sleeping very well. Landon is basically sleeping like he's taking naps...but during the day he is fairly happy and doing 2-3 naps like he was before and while we were gone - its just once we put him to bed. He'll usually sleep for 3 hours and then wake up really unhappy and it usually takes him a couple hours to fall back asleep. And we've been leaving him to cry for the most part, which is trying, but I don't want him to rely on us or food to fall asleep.  And he does this around midnight and then 4 am...and I know its only been a few days since we've gotten home, but I had a bit of a breakdown this morning and I feel like its not getting better at all.  And I know its not his fault, his poor little body is just so confused.  Anyways, sorry about the not-so-happy post, but I'd really appreciate your prayers because I know only God is going to give me the strength and energy to get through this.  Thank you.
