sneezes and coughs...

So Leila has come down with a little cold. The first couple of nights were brutal for brian and I. Lets just say after 2 hours of screaming, we threw out the no co-sleeping rule. She slept with us for like 3 nights. Sleep being a relative term. The first couple of nights she was up every 20-30 minutes which was very hard for us. Two nights ago she slept for two four hour stretches and then last night she slept for 8 and a half hours. HEAVEN! Brian and I didnt know what to do. We thought we were dreaming. She has been a faucet the last couple of days and all my clothes are covered with snot, which i thought i would be grossed out about, but i have realized its just part of the job. I cant miss cuddling with her just because of a little snot! lol.

Other than this little set back, life is going great! She has been and is on the verge of crawling. She will scoot all around the floor, but is a little shy about putting one arm out and following it with her knee. She is a very happy baby, smiling and giggling a lot. She is very talkative. I have a feeling that when she starts actually talking there will be no stopping her.

Hopefully this new sleeping pattern becomes a habit and her little cough goes away. Hope everyone has a Happy St. Patricks Day!!
