Tuesday night at 3:20am. What a look he is giving me when I try to explain that no one should see 3:20am on a clock.
I believe these sleepless nights made me weak and vulnerable to a cold. I've had a sore throat, congestion and earaches. I tried to keep my hands clean and kisses away from H...but how do you keep from spreading germs to a little one you literally spend 24/7 with? If there is a way, I have not found it, because H is now sick. He is so pitiful with congestion. His breathing sounds so awful and he has this little cough. It makes me feel so bad to spread it to him. We have found sleeping sitting upright helps...so the swing and my chest have been his place of rest. I'm hoping the weekend brings wellness and rest!
The nap began in a comfy position that encourages drainage.
At some point he ended up like this...but seemed comfortable still. Maybe smelling his foot helps clear his congestion.

He is so adorable!! Poor you and poor little boy! I had the same thing last week. Praying you get to feeling better! april
That last picture is hilarious! Hope you both are feeling better soon!
It was great to see you both at the shower. Maybe it is just allergies, Wyatt has them too (all my kids do). I hope you all feel better soon.
I feel your pain, even eight years later! Devyn had the SAME schedule--and the same conjestion! Rolling up a towel and elevating the mattress in her basinette and crib helped with sleeping during the night...just wanted to let you know I've been there and I remember it so well--don't worry--sleep will come! Prayer and coffee can get you through until then! :)
