Stuffy Noses

It was bound to happen- Noah got his first cold this week.  It started Sunday with a stuffy nose and escalated from there.  By Monday evening all three of us were a sneezing, coughing, nose-blowing, yet still good-looking family.  Noah has ben a trooper, even without the comforts of DayQuil and NyQuil Scott and I have enjoyed.  Yesterday, Gramps and Mema suggested we take the day off together.  So we went for a walk and cuddled just like we did when he was smaller.

In other news, I said "bye-bye" to Ole' Bessie, as our neighbor Amanda has termed it.  The breast-pump has been put away for good.  As many of you know, Noah preferred his bottle from the very beginning.  So, I pumped 6-8 times per day for the first 3 months, then down to 4 times, 3 times, 2 times, and finally 1 time per day up until he turned 8 months old.  He enjoys his Organic Similac now.

Today Noah and I will be going with Gams to the North Collier Regional Water Park for the first time.  Scott is taking an Elevator class.  We are very excited... I am anyway... Noah is unaware, perfectly content to chew on a credit card while I prepare for our outing.  We will post pictures and video soon!

A bittersweet moment to be done with Bessie I am sure. Have fun at the water park!
