Lexi's First Time Being Sick

In the past, Lexi has gotten mild colds. Nothing that ever made her smile disappear or made her grumpy. However, she has gotten the nasty cold that Paige had and boy is she (and I) MISERABLE! My poor baby has an ULTRA runny nose, a CONSTANT never-let-up cough, and a fever. Last night we were up from 1:00 until about 4:30. I finally had to let her cry herself to sleep because I couldn't do anything more for her and she was SO tired. I had given her medicine (both Motrin and Tylenol). I had rocked her (she cried then too). She had sat with us on our bed. We had done everything. So finally, she cried (more like screamed) herself to sleep.

Needless to say, she is tired this morning. Although you wouldn't know it by the short nap she is attempting to take. I hope she starts feeling better soon. She hasn't wanted to even eat very much and Lexi likes to eat. Good thing she has some rolls on her so that I won't get too worried if she doesn't eat much for a day or two. It makes me miserable to see Lexi Loo so sick and miserable.

Come back soon Lexi!
