Baby is sick!

I feel somewhat stressed today as baby E is sick and she's having a hard time settling down. I'm trying to stay positive but it's hard when I'm by myself. Hubby is out at a work function and I'm all alone! Not that it's too hard - E went down for a 2 hour nap so I can't complain but this is like the 5th day of Emmy not being herself.

And then there's the snot. Holy god, I haven't seen that much snot in my life! Every time she sneezes, there's another stringer of snot. You might be sitting there all grossed out, but if you're a mother or anyone who has been around a person who can't blow their nose, you know exactly what I am talking about.

Being on maternity leave is a challenge everyday to stay sane, to try and lose the baby weight and to just be present in the moment.
