Bugs and Lergies


For the past few days, Munchkin and I have been ill. I started off coughing and spluttering at the weekend and Munchkin was stricken on Monday.

I must say I am very proud. Despite the fact that he is feeling a little under the weather, can't blow his nose and therefore is a walking snot factory, Munchkin shows no signs of manifesting "man cold" traits. A man cold for those of you who haven't come across it before is, the baddest, worstest cold in the world EVER. It bears pains greater than childbirth. The sufferer is usually weak and very miserable for DAYS on end and usually is very, very grumpy most of the time.

Munchkin is obviously too young to manifest these symptoms. Typically, the above is how we get greeted in the morning. However, he doesn't stay that clean for long. The slug trails soon appear and sometimes we get a bubble or two from the nostrils....charming child...He thinks it is really funny and goes cross eyed trying to focus on said snot bubble. Hmm..the simple things in life!
