Burrel, her eye already looks like nothing happened. I am using the nasal bulb thing and baby saline drops. Which of course ltc fights and acts like I'm trying to kill her. It's really a two person job. She's ridiculously strong for 9 months old.
Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

Wow, see what I mean about Wolverine?

Our wings are not tired.
Yeah, the nasal bulbs are annoying as can be, but work. Sorry about the black eye. We had some most impressive egg size bruises on the foreheads and heads in the early days. No broken bones except one finger in basketball camp. A couple of neighbor kids broke bones on our zip line, but the parents wouldn't let me take it down because they enjoyed it so much.
Kids!

I'm glad your brother wasn't badly hurt, erika. Much calm~ma to him for dealing with the subsequent hassles.

~ma to your brother, erika.
ltc is currently spitting cottage cheese all over her daddy. I'm more amused than I probably should be. Also ltc has passed on her cold to me.

Sorry about the germ passing, sj. I hope for quick recovery for both of you.

She seems much better today. She fought us going to sleep last night again, which never happens, but I think the congestion is worse when she lays down.
I just scored a free pack and play from moving neighbors.

Ugh sj, I am suddenly remembering nights when I went without much sleep so I could rock a sleeping congested baby in my arms so they could sleep

But as someone at work recently reminded me, I did not sleep train my babies

ltc has been a fantastic sleeper since birth. So, we are spoiled parents who aren't used to a baby that doesn't want to sleep.
