Yesterday (Saturday), Cal took a wonderful afternoon nap in his crib.  He was down for several hours, so I was thrilled.  Perfect time to get things done!  Eddie came home while he was sleeping so I even got to take a walk with just Hank.  
He went down around 7:30 last night without too much of a fight....well, we started getting him down at 7:30 and he was asleep just after 8: not too bad!
Cal woke up at 12:00 SCREAMING.  I went in to check on him and he was soaked.  Not just a little damp, but 100% drenched.  His jammies were stuck to him, he was so wet.  yikes.  So I quickly changed his diaper and his outfit, which got him allllll kinds of fired up.  He went from screaming to laughing to screaming again every 5 seconds.  I fed him and got him back down again.  He woke back up at 1, but I put the paci in and he was back asleep again right away. 
At 5, he started screaming again (I am not exaggerating when I say screaming-- it is LOUD!).  When I went in to get him, he had peed through another outfit, and this time was even wetter than before!  He was soaked AGAIN!  I had to peel the jammies off of him and this time, the crib was completely soaked.  
The kicker is: HE IS WEARING 12 HOUR DIAPERS! HA! I laugh at those diapers.  
I brought him in bed with me because I wasn't about to change his crib sheet at 5 in the morning, and he slept until about 6 ish.  At 8, I tried to put him down for a nap and he wasn't having it!  He was super happy and "talking" like crazy, but he would not take a nap!  Finally at 11:00, after no nap, I took him over to my mom's house to play for a while.  Momma is exhausted and needs a little relief!  My mom took him as soon as I walked in the door and sent me on my way.  She told me to go home and sleep (so what have I been doing?  Grocery store, cooked dinner, changed Cal's crib sheet, 2 loads of laundry, and now blogging--ha!).  I am missing him like crazy so I am going to go get him in about 20 minutes.  
I forgot to buy some new diapers at the store-- I heard Huggies has an overnight brand that works well for little boys..... I am going to go get those before I pick him up!  We need them!
Thanks for the help you all offered.  I have been giving him some Tylenol, and that seems to help calm him down at night.  Now if only he would just sleep from 7-7.  Will that ever happen?????????
Hope everyone has had a great weekend!  I will try to take some pictures to post soon! :)
