She's sick

Amelia caught Bryan's cold :(
She has snot bubbles coming out of her nose, she's coughing on her boogers going down her throat and her eyes are red. Thankfully though, she doesn't feel warm AND she's over three months old. So we're keeping up on her tylenol and well rested.
And now she squats as she poops.
She has discovered her hands. She'll reach out her arm, stare at her fist and then place it into her mouth. She's also discovered her fingers. She can now place her two first fingers in her mouth and sufficiently suck on them as replacement for her pacifier.
We are working on her rolling over. Yesterday, I placed her on her Star Bright mat and she actually enjoyed it. She could reach up and play with some of the dangling things. And while she was lying there we worked on rolling over. I showed her how to roll onto her side and then she would do tummy time.
We're also working on going to bed on her own. Last night was a little tough but tonight's looking promising. I think it's also working because she's not feeling very well.

In other news:
Today, it took us 3 circles around the block, 6 tries up the road after reversing down, sideways shuffle back down the road, and after 25ish minutes, a swirly attempt into our driveway. It was madness, frightening, and funny. Thank you CR for properly deicing our streets.
So, therefore, Courtney didn't make it home today. And I'm very glad we didn't attempt it cause it sounds like a lot of people went into a ditch or got into a car accident. Truthfully, I wouldn't have gone to church if I hadn't already left the driveway, couldn't get back up our street and almost didn't make it to the main road. I nearly walked back up the street to our house.
