Today was MISERABLE.
Coughing all last night, sad baby all day long.
We spent some serious cuddle/nursing time together today, trying to get it all out of our systems. It's so awful to watch a sad sick baby. She just looks so confused & hurt when she can't stop coughing.
I managed to haul our icky selves to the health food shop to grab some rosemary, lavender & eucalyptus oils and boy howdy, do they ever help. I sometimes forget the power of aromatherapy -- I really need to make it my first defense from now on.
Thanks for all of your kind messages & well wishes -- hopefully we'll ACTUALLY be on the mend soon! I'm not sure our noses can take much more blowing!
Peace!
...
Note: The boy is completely healthy without even the slightest hint of a cold. This makes me pretty happy, however. I'm not sure I could take care of TWO babies at once & live to tell about it.

soooooooo cute! the two of you I mean....not the fact that you guys are sick- that part sucks, majorly. I hope you get better.
Thyme tea is good for deep chest coughs....just an idea.
xoxo hugs to the Fawn girls
Omg I'm just realizing now how LONG my hair has gotten. Wowzers.
I've never used aromatherapy. I should do some research on it?
Boooo to being sick. Y'all need a good old fashioned thunder storm, I hear they're good for the soul. And the humidity couldn't hurt either, could it? hee hee.
Mmm, a thunderstorm would be PERFECT right about now. I'd love to run around in one, haha, though that might not be great for my cold.
Aromathery and such is really neat -- I don't know a TON about it, but I do know that I love the different smells!
Eucalyptus REALLY clears out the stuffed nose symptoms -- such a good feeling.
Oh no... I hope you guys actually get better soon. I can't even imagine how awful it must be to see your baby sick. :(
Sending healing vibes your way! :)
cozy in and feel better.

I know right??? This is what happens when I have no time for a hair appointment!

Cyber hugs to you all....(at least we can't catch anything that way)...get better soon. xx
