Sickness...

Last Wednesday, Jonathan finally got his first cold. Not that I was waiting for it! He started getting a weird cough. I didn't actually know it was a cold till the next day when he had ALL the symptoms. I have felt so bad for him this past week. I'm grateful that he hasn't gotten sick before, but I also think that I could have handled it better if he had gotten his cold earlier. There were a couple nights when he didn't get much sleep and he just wanted to cuddle (yay!), except when we cuddled with him, he didn't actually sleep, so he was EXTREMELY tired. After a while I figured that cuddling wasn't helping him as much as sleep would, so I reluctantly put him back in his crib. Where he cried for awhile. Poor kid. There was another evening where he was tired but couldn't sleep and it seemed that for him NOTHING was going right! He just stood there bawling, and then he tried walking around at the same time. Of course he wasn't able to see well while crying and bumped his face on his toy box and bit his lip. After that he was really crying and needed some cuddling then too. He was just so miserable. And then I got the same cold, which I tried to avert by taking Zicam (which really works! As long as you start taking it as SOON as you get symptoms...). So lifes been fun lol. Anyways, I sure hope his cold goes away soon! I hate seeing him feeling miserable!

In the next post I will put up some recent pictures of Jonathan... I would now, but I don't have time since he just woke up! :)

I'm glad you guys are feeling better. And yes, my mom and I swear by Zicam! It is amazing! Too bad they don't make baby Zicam. Sounds like Jonathan needed it!
