First Cold

You know you have a happy baby on your hands when she smiles at you while you suction her nose with one of those bulb thingys. She sounds terrible but we've been assured this is nothing alarming and that she is able to fight it off. So we wait. And I barely sleep. Not because she's fussy or anything but because she keeps gargling on her snot and I'm terrified she's going to quit breathing or something. Poor baby. Sneezing and coughing while you sleep is no fun. Even if you do insist on smiling through the ordeal.
