Adorably gross

Every night after bath time, I use the nasal aspirator on Ava's snot. It's as gross as it sounds, but she's freakishly comfortable with it.

Well, Baby Girl has her first cold (kind of? no fever) and the sniffles are getting the best of her. So, I've been cleaning out her nose very often.

Just last night, she started this thing where she TRIES TO LICK IT as I suction. Every time I stick that thing in her nose, her little tongue creeps out. It is equal parts hilarious and gross. Naturally, I started laughing when it happened, which made her laugh. There we were, me and my snot-filled daughter, giggling at each other. It was fing precious.

I guess these are the moments parents talk about when they say it's all worth it.
