Last night we broke the rules and let Greyson "sleep" with us and we will do it again tonight. He's sick and I'm sick and it just made since to all snuggle together in one big bed of grossness. Luckily Michael still has functioning sinuses so he's available at 3:30am to fetch cough drops, kleenex, cups of water and to warm up rice packs to stick on our heads. He's also there to hold Greyson while I cough so hard I throw up - seven times. Gross, I know, I'm sorry. To make it even grosser - the only thing I was throwing up was snot. Ah post-nasal-drip - how I hate you!! It's bad enough that you make my life miserable but now you are making my son miserable too.
Poor Greyson is a mess. He just wants to be held. We can't get him to play or eat. He just wants to be held. Thank goodness we still have the Pikkolo! I strapped it on over my pregnant body this afternoon. It wasn't ideal, but it was more comfortable for both of us than just holding him. Then Michael took a turn. In fact he's still wearing him.
I do not know what we would do without this thing!
We've got chicken soup in the crock-pot, humidifiers running and plans to all climb into bed early again tonight. Hopefully we will be better in the morning.

Hi. I randomly found your blog while doing a google image search for avocados - we're also expecting our 2nd and at that stage. How fun.
The sinus crud has also hit our house. I hope you all get to feeling better!
