Barkety Bark

So little Miss Sugar has the croup. She sounds awful when she coughs. It is like a barking seal. She has been demanding lots of attention this week. On a normal day see needs lots of loving and holding so when she is sick it is crazy. Thank goodness she is sleeping a lot due to the medicine so I have been switching out laundry as fast as I can. So far Spice has not gotten it so we are blessed. I was informed by my Mother that the vaccines are not working and it is going around all the schools and daycare. I think we got it from the YMCA child watch. It has been hard not getting to go to the gym this week since it is contagious and I don't want to pass it on to others. I have been walking the park and yesterday I put on some fun music for the girls and we danced for about 20 minutes or so. It was fun and at least I got some cardio in. Spice thought it was more funny than anything. She would sit on the floor and clap for me saying " Ya Mommy dancing ". It was so funny because she was doing what we do for her while she dances.

In other news Sugar has gotten very good at setting up all on her own. She sits up and plays for a good while. I am very happy to also report that she had a great 9 month appointment. She now weighs 16 pounds which is only rated 15% and 20% in height. That is just comparing her to what is norm for 9 months. It doesn't count the fact that she was 4 weeks early. She is still wearing her 3 to 6 month cloths. The doctor said she will probably be petite. She is much smaller than Spice was at this point. She is so cute and cuddly I love it.
