It doesn't take much for her to get worn out now. After her relaxing bath, she drank a couple ounces (maybe) of her bedtime bottle and fell asleep in daddy's arms.

Sick and Tired - Literally
It certainly has not been fun in our house for the last 2 days. Kate has her first illness - a cold! Yet even with her stuffy nose, rosy cheeks and occasional crankiness, she still manages to be a happy baby.
As long as she is awake, well fed or playing she doesn't mind us suctioning her nose. Now do it when she firsts wakes up to have a bottle or in the middle of the night that's another story! She will scream bloody murder! She even made mommy cry yesterday. She was hungry but wouldn't drink her bottle. She would get it in her mouth and then start to cry (and this was after her nose had been cleared). I tried everything to make her stop. We walked, we bounced, we looked at the ceiling fan, we swayed - nothing. Then I tried funny faces while she was sitting on the couch. Sure enough if I blew enough raspberries at her she started laughing (and trying to figure out how to do it, too). After nearly an hour (which felt like a lifetime) she drank her bottle. Little stinker.
