Morgan herself is not a problem, of course. Do you know what is? When someone at her daycare continues to infect her with lice. I definitely call that a problem.
We've treated it twice and she's sat through several sessions of dry combing, and now we will start with wet combing every other day because it keeps returning! Argh!
No matter what you say to a 5 year old or how many braids you can put in their hair, there's no stopping the cuddling and subsequent lice transfer. It's supremely frustrating.
Anyway. It could be worse! And this baby is safe and sound and has virtually no chance of getting lice anytime soon so I call that a win!
I have felt considerably more movement the last week or so, and definitely more movement than what I felt with Morgan this early on. This kiddo is a wiggly one!
Set up the crib for him as well, even though he won't actually be sleeping in it for another 7 months, give or take, but it's done! I also went through a bunch of Morgan's old clothes to bag them up, and in the process found a whole dresser drawer full of gender neutral clothes INCLUDING a sleep sack, which was a great find. I forgot completely about all that stuff! I also found one of my favourite little sleepers of hers, which happens to be gray with a teddy on it, so this fellah can use that as well.
Winning all around!
