Holidays, Day Three
misty · Mon, Dec 21, 2015My girl is getting sick again. We suctioned her nose this morning and got a good bit of snot out. I hope she gets over it swiftly. I just want to hold her all day when she’s not feeling well. But, we’re visiting family, and that means I have to let others do some of the cuddling. Sharing is hard.
This afternoon, we had a visit from some of Chase’s friends, and Milo loved having new faces to look at. She’s definitely a people watcher, so she just stared and stared at everyone. As usual, she was glad to rest in any arms that would have her, but we didn’t get the squeals of joy or marathon gabbing that we sometimes get from her. She was mellow and quiet, and she went down for her second nap without any difficulty at all. I attribute this to the slight sickness she has. Hopefully the rest will do her well.
This evening, Scott and Debbie made some good pizza and Scott’s friend Britney came over and entertained Milo for a while. She was much more talkative and happy this evening than she was earlier in the day.
Milo is getting better and better at grabbing things and bringing things to her mouth. Oh, and she’s quite adept at grabbing things with her feet, too! Often when Chase or I are changing a diaper, she will grab an arm or shirt with those little feet!! It’s pretty cute
Notes:
Milo has soiled several outfits since she got here; we’ve gotten the poop out of most of them, though one may be beyond saving. She doesn’t soil as many outfits when we use the gDiapers, but we’re using disposable for now because a) she’s got a diaper rash, so the super dry diapers are helpful, and b) we’re on a trip, so the disposables are easier to get.
The dog is getting used to Milo’s presence, though she still likes to be among all the people all the time. Milo has gotten her fair share of licks. I’d be happy if she went without dog licks for quite a while, if I’m being honest.
