Poor Rutherford - he's got his first real cold :( Of course I have it too!
He and I are pretty miserable. He's been a real trooper, though. Not too crabby and not even crying too much when I use the Snotsucker on him. (Really one of the best baby purchases ever!) On top of his cold, the time changed last night so our schedule is way off. Oh well!
Ned made me homemade chicken soup last night and even picked up some Kleenex so I didn't have to use toilet paper to blow my nose like a cavewoman. Awwww.
I've been taking cold meds, Zicam and Cold-Eeze. Poor R can't take anything for his symptoms. We put the humidifier right by his crib and dosed it with some peppermint essential oil and I've been trying to clear his nose every few hours. That definitely helps. Last night I felt so bad for him, poor little guy was all congested. He slept well, though, so very thankful for that. Rest and fluids will be best for him.
Hopefully we won't be under the weather too long - fingers crossed!
