Cold

It was a big week (seems like every post starts this way) for mommy and baby!  And it was a cold one in many ways, too.

Mommy had to work a bit more at the beginning of the week with a couple of late nights, so Marmena and GiGi came to take care of my girl while I was gone and Michael was out of town for work this week.  And with her continued inquisitiveness, I'm pretty sure it was rather exhausting.

With Sheridan before our big night on Tuesday!

On Thursday, my sweet, dear friends, Sheridan and Jim, came immediately after work to be with my baby so her grandmothers and I could attend "White Christmas" at the Fox.  Obviously it was going to be a late night, but for Sheridan and Jim, it was also a long night - at least from the time we left until Libby went to bed.  Every time she saw Jim, she started bawling, so Sheridan had to do some one-on-one playing with Libby up in her room.  Libby wouldn't take her last bottle (not a surprise since she rarely will with anyone not her parents or grandmothers) and also had an accident on the changing table (while also crying because we'd been trying to keep her up a bit later in preparation for the time change.)  And Sheridan had had a very full week by Thursday already.  I felt terrible - but you just never know with babies.  At least she was only up for an hour or so (though I'm sure it felt like several!)

This weekend, she's also had the worst cold ever.  Her nose won't stop running and she can hardly drink a bottle because she can't breathe.  So we're cramming solids in her like crazy and she's getting lots of oatmeal with plenty of formula.  Hopefully this will keep her full.  She did pretty well with the time change thing last night/this morning, especially considering that we went to visit GiGi and Papa so that Miss B could meet her great grandma who came down from Ohio to meet her.  It was really a very nice visit and we had a wonderful early Thanksgiving to celebrate.

With Great-Grandma Gordon!

Wish me luck that the time change thing continues to go well!
