Lost cord - 3 weeks and 6 days, must be a record!
Have given more smiles. The biggest and brightest was 11/10, your daddy's birthday
Went almost 6 hours between feedings last night. However, I was up until midnight with Hadley and again at 1:30am from hearing your congestion, so I didn't get to enjoy 5+ hours of continuous sleep.
You are still congested. You don't have a cold. Apparently this is fluid from birth that is still working its way out. No runny nose or fever, just fluid high up in your nose. I hate how it makes you choke when it gets in your throat. I get out what I can when I can using the bulb syringe, saline drops, and a humidifier. Most of the time I can't get it though. Fortunately it doesn't cause you to fuss.
Tonight was your first time to really fuss about your stomach bothering you. I have no idea what I ate, but you were pretty uncomfortable, fussy, and gassy for at least 20 minutes. We were able to comfort you the rest of the evening, but I could tell you didn't feel wonderful.
You are so bright eyed now! You like to lie on my chest, raise your head, and look around. You also like to relax with your head against my chest and look at whatever there is to see.
Some days we take naps together while Hadley naps. I hold you against my chest with the boppy around for extra protection. I love this time. I get some rest as well as bond with you. You are growing so fast that I feel like I'm not getting any time with you. Really, you're already 1.5 months old already!?! You're getting so big too. It fills me with love and breaks my heart at the same time.
Hadley loves you very much, sometimes too much. I caught her just before she shared (threw) a couple of books on you in the swing. She's very sweet to you and is great at giving you the pacifier. She also likes to get thisclose to your face and almost yell, "HI MADELINE! IT'S OKAY MADELINE." I know the two of you will be good friends. Hadley's already tried to share her treats with you. I think you'll learn quickly that she'll do this... You two sisters better not team up against me! ;)
Oh how I love my girls!
