Justin's first cold

I guess it was bound to happen but I was so proud of the fact that Justin hasn't been sick since his bout with pneumonia last year. Last week Justin and I both came down with colds and it's been rough: sleepless nights, complete exhaustion, vomiting, congestion, runny nose, you name it. Obviously having a sick child is no fun, but add a pregnant mommy and an out of town daddy to the mix and it makes things ten times worse.

I've been feeling much better since Sunday and Justin has just a little bit of a runny nose left but he's finally getting back to normal. Now we just have to get back to him putting himself to sleep. For the last month I've been able to put him in his crib and he falls asleep within 10-15 minutes, but last week's cold totally set us back and he's back to wanting to be held and rocked to sleep.
