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.
~ma sent to your brother, erika.
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.
Poor ltc & sj. I hope you both feel better ASAP.
M & I are both currently recovering from from colds that I hope we didn't pass on to Peanut, who's undergoing Yet Another sleep transition. She wants to nap, she likes to nap, but there are so many shiny grabbable things! Napping means she can't grab All The Things! What's a baby to do? (Answer, be adorable and sleep-deprived.)
Juliana, ltc has occasionally fallen asleep sitting up in her crib because she'll play with her binky or one of her small rubber animals until she passes out. It's the funniest thing. I hope Peanut figures out how to nap better soon.
I am having the shittiest day. TCG broke a tooth on a week that he really doesn't have time to deal with it. ltc is so congested that she hasn't been able to breast feed since first thing this morning. We tried formula for the first time in a bottle, a regular cup, and a straw cup and couldn't get her drink from any of them. We finally have her some formula through a syringe and I have a call into the doctor.
