First Cold

Now this is not one of those mile stones you normally brag about and believe me I am not. I am so sad for Ruby. Just the other day I was saying how I was so lucky that we got through the winter with a new baby and she didn't get sick. And now here it is almost summer and she gets a cold. She is being a really good baby, isn't even really fussy, just wants me to hold her, and she wants her blanket and binky right by her. She just can't breathe for the life of her. And she is addicted to her binky and that's all she wants, so that makes the whole breathing thing even worse and when she drinks a bottle. I swear I have never heard a baby sneeze so much in my life. I hope the runny/stuffy nose is all she gets. I am worried because babies who get a cold sometimes get an ear infection after that. Hopefully the whole thing will pass quickly.
Hudson's had a cold too, I am glad they at least got one together. At least he can blow his nose though, if Ruby could do that then she'd be a happy camper.
Hopefully the whole thing will pass in a few days. Lets just hope we all get some sleep tonight.

I'm so sorry, that is the worst to have a sick baby, just wishing you could make it go away.
Lockes first cold was at 6 months, we were in Utah visiting. He would sleep with his mouth open cuz he couldn't breath. But he was so good.

So sad! Emmy just got over croup, not fun. Emmy is a binky girl, too, so it was so sad listening to her try to breath with it, finally she would just spit it out. I hope Ruby's doing better!
