I took Els to the doctors this morning after being up all night with her. Just a cold, no secondary infection. They weighed her of course, and she is 15lbs 13 oz (3 months old). Holy huge baby! But her dad has her beat...he was 15lbs 13ozs at 2 months according to his baby book. She is actually longer than he was at this point. I think she will be tall like daddy! I feel a little sensitive to the fact that she is so big. People do comment, though no one has been rude...yet.
Reagan got sick first and gave it to the other girls. No fevers, just colds. It was a very hard night, I got about 3hrs of very broken sleep. I had to wake Craig up to help at one point. It gave us flash backs to her colicky days as we paced the floor with her at 2am. I am grateful for a wonderful husband who always puts his family before his job. He got up at 6 with the kids and I got another couple of hours sleep. Then he stayed home with the older girls while I ran Elsie to the Pediatricians. He was able to get into work by 11 and stay the rest of the day.
Elsie is sleeping, finally, her crib. Please pray for quick recoveries so we can visit with the Smiths next week and not get them sick!!!
