Something I forgot to add in my Day 3 update was that I did a load of laundry! See what happens when I try to write an update without notes??!!
So on the first night, the wierdest thing happened! I woke up and got up to check the time (only thing I dislike about not having a window) and then Jack woke up because he needed to go potty. I took him to the bathroom and when I turned around I noticed something on the floor... blood! I look up at his face and sure enough, he has blood on it, and it's coming from his nose and dripping EVERYWHERE! He was still half asleep and completely oblivious so I calmed down a bit since he obviously wasn't injured and let him finish going potty. Then i had to stand him up on the toilet (so he wouldn't step in the blood on the floor) and take off his PJ shirt and wipe him (and the floor) up. Then I had him sit on the toilet with kleenex on his nose while I checked out the bed... and sure enough on the lovely white comforter there was blood. Thankfully since Jack sleeps funny (most nights he ended up lenghtwise) it wasn't in a crucial place and since it was only around 2 am we needed to go back to sleep. Finally his nose stopped bleeding and everything was fine, he went back to bed. The only problem was his lovey (a little green bear blanket thing he sleeps with) had gotten blood on it, so I couldn't let him sleep with it. I had intended to do laundry the next day, but we were actually kind of busy on that second day, so I waited until after our nap on that day 3. I ended up doing all of our dirty laundry up until that point in one load. It was super easy, I just had to swipe our KTTW card. We started it before the pictures and everything and got it back out after dinner! I did feel really bad that the steward was going to have to change the comforter after only one day, and I made sure to let her know as soon as I saw her next, but she was really sweet and took care of it right away.
And in case anyone is wondering, Jack has NEVER had a bloody nose before or since. It was the strangest thing. It's better than the incident on the last cruise we went on by ourselves where he threw up the first night and ran a fever...
Yikes! Poor little guy. Glad all was fine in the end. That's weird that he's never had a bloody nose before AND it happened on the first night.
