It's still snot city around here, with Mike staying strong as the only healthy one in MooHooVille. We were all out of the house for work or daycare today, and I don't think I'm alone in counting the minutes until it reaches an acceptable fall-into-bed time.
I've felt really lucky that Natalie has stayed so healthy since her tubes surgery (knocking furiously on wood), but this cold has definitely done a number on our household. There's just nothing worse than a sick baby, amiright?
Any tried-and-true common cold remedies that you guys can recommend? We've been pushing fluids and running a humidifier, but not much beyond that. We always keep Natalie's mattress propped with a pillow so her head is elevated, but I don't know that it makes much difference in her nighttime sneezing & coughing fits. Any helpful hints for our sicks would be much appreciated!

Vick's Vapo Rub is a staple in our house! They make a baby version safe for the littles. I just rub a good coat on their chests and throats. The old folks say to rub it on their feet, too. They swear by it, actually. Hope you all feel better soon!!
