Thursday/Friday - Another Cold

Gracie had a good day at daycare, but had some sniffles, sneezes, and coughs that have now turned into a full blown cold.  Her nose is a faucet, she has a hard time breathing, and the cough is a pretty good one too.  I will definitely keep a close watch of that.  It's a productive cough right now, so I'm not terribly worried. 

Jeff went golfing last night, so Gracie and I bonded all night.  We just watched tv, played on the computer, and read books all night long.  Knowing she was feeling a bit under the weather, we made it a low key night with lots of snuggling. 

Gracie had a really rough night as she was all stuffed up and had a hard time breathing.  She did a good part of her sleeping while sitting up on me, but woke up alot.  She was still pretty tired this morning. Her mood seemed tired, but fine until she got to daycare.  She seemed fine until she didn't want one of her friends singing a song and so decided to get grabby and pinchy.  Of course she got talked to about this and she had to say she was sorry.  She did not want me to leave and was a pretty sad girl.  We are trying so hard to teach her to use words when she wants someone to stop, but it is so hard when she still struggles with expressive communication skills.  We will continue to work with her on this. 

I would have loved to be able to stay home with her today and give her some extra TLC. 

Wishing you all a great Memorial Day Weekend. 

Love,
Lisa, Jeff, and Gracie
