Maybe Being Potty Trained Isn't So Great After All

Brooke has been making great strides with potty training.  In fact, she pretty much only goes in the potty now. Although, it appears that there is a downside to this new situation.  Last night she called me in at 1:30 AM to announce that she had a wet diaper and needed it changed.  Middle-of-the night dealings are not totally uncommon with her, but after a few drinks at dinner last night ... this one was especially challenging.

So we changed diapers and I stumbled back to bed.

"Cough Cough"

Her cough (which is now going on about its 2 year anniversary) is back.  It actually started yesterday during the day, but when she woke up to the wet diaper it also set off the cough.  She needed her inhaler a couple of times and continued to cough until a bit after 2AM, until finally she (and I) settled back to sleep.  Well, for the next few hours, since she popped up at 6:31AM ready for the day to begin.
