If I don’t post much this week…

You’ll know it’s because we’ve frozen to death here in Oklahoma.

It’s funny how quickly you acclimate to a new area. I can remember telling my mom sometime in 2000 or 2001 that I could never live in Houston because it was too stinking humid. I mean, I’ve lived in other areas of the Midwest where people complain about how humid it is. These people must have never visited Houston, B’ham, New Orleans, etc. in the summertime. But then we moved to Birmingham and after the first year I got used to the humidity, and the mild winters. Now when we go home to Tulsa for the holidays we freeze.

And if being cold wasn’t enough, Daphne is now full-blown sick (fever, runny nose, occasional cough and sneeze). I’m keeping her hydrated, giving her Tylenol or Motrin when she is really feeling miserable and Hyland’s C-Plus Cold Tablets. I know Hyland’s has other homeopathic cold/flu products for kids, but this was the only one that was labeled for use at 12 months, everything else was 2 yrs. If anyone has any other natural remedies to pass along, please let me know. The poor baby is miserable.
