Sick Day

This morning Layla and I both woke up with colds. She has a hacking cough, and I have the same cough with a sore throat. She doesn't have a fever, so I guess we'll try to tough it out. She slept a lot today and neither of us got out of our p.j.s. We did spend some time outside. It was such a beautiful day. I spread a blanket in the soft grass and we both laid there looking at each other and the trees overhead.

Yesterday we went to Uncle Doug and Aunt Deb's house for swimming and steaks. Layla got in the pool in her swimsuit for the first time. It had stormed the night before, which cooled things down a bit, so the water was chilly when you first stepped in. Every time the water hit her belly she gasped. She only stayed in a few minutes for pics. We'll have to try again later with warmer water.

Layla is such a joy. She's such a happy baby. Her mood can turn on a dime from smiles to a pitiful frown, but most of the time we're entertained with her sideways grins.
