When we plugged it in the outlet in Bud's room, and the thermostat flashed the room's current temperature.... oh, I felt sooo bad. It read 64 degrees! And that's during the warmest time of the day for his room! It gets so much colder than that during the night-- we just hadn't realized how cold! No wonder I'm kept up all night with his monotone calls of, "Mah-am! I need my covers on! Moh-ahm! I need to be covered up!"
Bud always looks so tired-- I mean, completely wiped out. The poor kid hasn't been getting any sleep either! He's just spending his nights as a little Bud-sicle, trying to get warm. Here's to hoping that the space heater will allow us both to get the sleep we so desperately need!

Good luck! I hope it's working. Max always needs about 5 blankets to stay warm enough.
I really hope it solves the problem and that you all feel more rested tomorrow. Loved the photos of you guys with your cousins on FB, btw. I don't think I've ever seen those. So cute.
Oh, poor guy. :( Yeah, here's hoping that the space heater works...for BOTH of you!! :)
That is the saddest mother guilt story! (I have lots, but I don't think I've shared any, they make me feel too awful.) I'm glad yours has an easy solution!
Yes, Jen, a lot of guilt. Only made worse when JA said, "wouldn't it be funny if all of the sudden he started to grow, since he's not having to use up all of his energy to stay warm?"
