Baby sips...
Dear Nicky,
So Shelby came over this morning to work on you some. She usually is five to ten minutes late, but this morning she was right on time, which meant that I had to share some of my freshly juiced drink with her, since it was still sitting in the container, smelling all good. I may have mentioned before that I might have a problem with textures myself, which is why I'm not a major fruit or vegetable eater, but put 'em in a juicer and watch out!
Anyway, Shelby worked on you. We're still trying to get that tongue protrusion thing under control. It'd be great if we could. She also got you to take a couple tiny sips out of this cutaway training cup we have. You were pretty messy, but I think you're on the right track.
Later you took basically a three-hour nap. This is an historic event. You semi-woke up an hour into it, fussed a little, but went back to sleep. Two hours into you woke up screaming, probably a combination of teething pain and the desire to continue sleeping. Also, the dry air in here has you stuffed up, and I figured that was the most significant factor in your discomfort. So while you were screaming inconsolably I squirted some saline up your nose and liquefied a couple of big boogers. As soon as that was done you were much better and went back to sleep. But while you were screaming and before I could get the saline into your nose, you had a really bad meltdown, like something we haven't seen in months. I sure didn't like seeing that! But afterward you went to sleep, then woke to eat, then you went down for the night. You better be doing some serious growth-spurting!
Love,
Dad
