sad, sick baby...

February 17th, 2009

You have now had your first fever and head cold. You had Daddy and I worried. You didn't sleep AT ALL for 2 nights in a row. Daddy would take the first half of the night, and I took the last half. We just held you while you whimpered so pathetically. :( I found out how hard it is to work and plan a talk while taking care of a sick 5 month old. All I wanted to do was hold you all day and all night. You are feeling better now, and to make up for the lost sleep, you slept 12 hours!! What a treat for me! My talk was done, and for the first time in five months, I got to sleep in until 9am! WOW. That felt great! Thanks, Magoo!
I'm glad to have you back to your cheery little self.

You are eating solids now and you LOVE it. It took a while, but you are now interested in solids. You like bananas, rice cereal, peaches, and most of all, sweet potatoes. You also drink from a sippy cup like a pro!

Daddy taught you to roll over. The first 2 times you did it, you were 3 months old. (Belly to Back) Now you roll from back to belly. It seems like every time we put you down, there you go... rolling over. You are so fun to play with. You also sit up on your own. We keep pillows around you, but you are doing very well!

We love to watch you grow! I just wish it wouldn't happen so FAST!

hugs & kisses,
"mommy"
