The poor babe got her first cold, days shy of turning three weeks old, and she’s miserable.\u00a0 Or, I suppose, it’s me who’s miserable, looking at and listening to her.\u00a0 To be honest, she doesn’t seem much fazed by it, not yet having the life experience to make judgments such as “sick equals bad.”\u00a0 Other than sleeping more than normal–and really, how much difference is there between eighteen hours a day and twenty hours a day–she’s going along the same as ever.<\/p>\n
The rest of us are sick, too, and unfortunately not as oblivious to it as little Brynja appears to be.\u00a0 Petra, in particular, is feeling the effects, and it’s wearing on us all.\u00a0 Since getting the stomach flu week before last and moving straight from that to a nasty head cold, she’s turned into a little monster we hardly recognize.\u00a0 I think feeling bad has kicked her terrible two-ness into high gear.\u00a0 She screams and cries and hits and kicks and rolls around on the floor in full-on temper tantrums.\u00a0 She’s more or less stopped sleeping through the night, treating us instead to long, painful scream-fests in the wee hours, during which she refuses absolutely to be consoled.\u00a0 We’ve quite nearly reached our wits’ end, and just want our sweet little girl back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
