Sick & Sleepy, WW #53 + LINKY

We have been trying to get better around here. SweetPea and I both have had colds. I even had to take her to the doctor last week (Tuesday). She only had the beginnings of an ear infection and you would never have known she was sick the way she acted at the doctor's office. But she has been having coughing spells, so I have been letting her sleep in the living room on her pull out Tinkerbell couch. It keeps her elevated, close to me, and has proven that she can go without a diaper at nap time! :)
