My poor little snot-nosed kids
The girls officially have their first colds. =( We've been very fortunate that they've been so healthy for the last six months so we can't complain. It started a few days ago with little Caroline. I was noticing that she was so congested in the mornings when she woke up, but it seemed to clear up as the day went on and she'd be back to normal. Then she started waking up several times during the night which isn't the norm for them anymore. Her little nose would be so stopped up that it was waking her up every hour or so. And without surprise, Livi caught the cold yesterday. Poor little babies. They both have these awful sounding coughs and runny noses, and they just aren't themselves. I stood with them in the shower last night for a while, hoping that the steam would help to break up some of this crud. The only thing we can give them is saline nose drops and then use the nasal aspirator (aka - the "Booger Sucker") which they absolutely HATE! Hopefully this remains just a cold and doesn't turn into something else. And hopefully they get better soon! Until then, our nights are filled with babies fussing and booger sucking!
