That’s what this is.

I have had a cold the last couple of days. I seem to be past the worst of it. But I was beat.

SBJ was also sleeping poorly… Again? Still? But last night we pulled out all the stops. Gave him a bath, put a little hydrocortisone on his itchy patches, gave him preemptive Tylenol in case his teeth were bothering him, ran a humidifier in his room, and changed out his blanket. Aside from a brief stirring in the middle of the night, he slept until 6:30.

So you bet your buttons we did *exactly* the same thing as last night. I NEED SLEEP.

Have I mentioned that he’s started solids? He LOVES it. I have never seen a baby take to it so fast.

C is now at the point where she can buckle her own seatbelt. She says, “I’m practicing for when I’m in college.” Mmm-kay.

She has also developed this thing where she goes into the living room if she wants to have a talk with Mommy. It’s very sweet.

Is the e-mail notification working for this blog? I realize that is sort of like saying, “If you’re not present, please raise your hand.” For those of you who are signed up and are seeing this, are you getting messages when this blog is updated? Thanks.

And that’s all!

    I finally came to the blog thinking, “Ok, the email notification thing-ee must not be working. That, or RM is dead somewhere. I’m going with #1.” And lo and behold, I was right! I haven’t been getting notified for maybe 2 weeks or so, give or take. Glad to know it wasn’t number 2!

    Yes, it’s working for me.

    Hope the sleep solution works for y’all for a good while.

    Email notices have been hit or miss here, and the ones I’ve gotten in the last few weeks (except the “test of email notification” ones today) have shown the code, not just the text.

    I don’t remember if I’m signed up or not, but if I am then I’m definitely NOT getting e-mails about the blog. I’ve got you on Bloglines now though, so I guess I might be double covered.

    Email thingy is not working for me. Much saddness ensued.

    I’ve been following along with google reader, but I fall behind with that.

    Here’s hoping you feel better and gets tons of sleep!

    I stopped getting notifications a few weeks ago, but that was around the same time I started using a spam filtering service, so I wasn’t sure.

    Crossing my fingers for another good night for sbj…and his parents.

    I get the email notifications.

    Don’t underestimate the sleep interruption qualities of itchy skin. Hydrocortisone and even a little benadryl (need the antihistamine effect for the skin and the side effects aren’t bad either) will often help.

    I have not been getting e-mail notifications for quite a while either.

    Glad you discovered the magic sleep formula. Hope it continues to work.

    What kind of solids is SBJ eating? We’re starting Parker on solids soon and were curious as to what you’re feeding him.
