Wy woke up yesterday morning with his cold having returned. Or maybe another cold? Who knows. All I know is that I'm once again wiping his nose and he's clingy and coughing.
His sick-clinginess usually only happens for a little bit during the day but when it does, nothing can really get done. I usually just enjoy it, no sense in fighting it, and we sit down on the couch with his blanket, probably his binki ("ki!"), and watch a few Youtube clips while I rub his bare feet and legs.
His favorite? And mine? This trailer. We will be watching this when it comes out in April! Can't wait.
Another favorite, Toy Story 3 trailer.
Have you heard of Despicable Me? Looks great. This one and this one show more of the story, and this one just cracks Wyatt up. And Caleb, if you want me to be honest.
After a bit he's ready to hop off the couch and go play, while I chase him around the house with a tissue. I never feel more like a mother than I do when wiping my child's nose. Something about that annoyed, "eehhhhhhh!" sound he makes. It makes me laugh because I totally remember feeling that way.
I've also done that thing where you lick your finger and wipe a smudge off his face.
I know, I know. Pass me the mom jeans.
It's funny I was just thinking about the smudge thing but my mom used a handkerchif (spelling?) from her purse--licking it of course--but then I thought, who carries handkerchifs anymore? I wouldn't even know where to buy one if I wanted to!
