WOW! What a couple of days we have had. It seemed to have started during our trip. She started to wake up about every two hours, just babbling, but eventually would cry and not able to soothe herself back to sleep. We just thought she was out of sorts from the drive and not being home. When we got back home, she became stuffy and congested. Well after two nights of no sleep we finally called the doctor. She was grunting really bad and we thought she had bad gas. She was crying uncontollably. She was able to be soothed for a bit but then cry hard again. She slept in her swing for about two hours at a time before waking up. Turns out that our sweet baby has her first ear infection! We hope that his does not turn into the run ins we had with Ford and ear infections. He got them constantly. Getting her to take the medicing is quite fun. She spits everything back out. We thought she was ready to start solids and were so excited, but turns out she is not. She just turns her little head and spits it out. The doctor said to quit for a couple weeks and try again then. She will probably be well into her sixth month before she is ready. She just loves to nurse!! That is how Ford was with the bottle and he came right off of it at one, so hopefully she will transtion nicely. I am not complaining. I love the cuddle time!!! She is down for a nap and Ford is off at school for some much needed play time and interaction with the older boys that he adores!! I am off to organize all the toys they recieved from Christmas. Will post more later!!!
