11:

Lily's sick, again. The second of about 8 colds this year, according to her doctor. I have a splitting headache and my body is sore. She gave me her cold yesterday and I'm not very pleasant.

She's been fighting with me all day. I have to rock her for her to sleep and even then she's pulling on my shirt, kicking me, screaming, and squirming like all hell. You'd think I was trying to smother her the way I have to cling to her so she won't fly out of my grasp. She's laying in her bassinet right now talking to herself and chewing on her thumb. I am so tired. I've been doing this for two days straight with little sleep last night. I had to call in sick at work yesterday just so I could tend to her. It's amazing on how much a child can test your patience and you still don't lose it.

She's crying again...
