Things learned:
Dimetapp DM (containing antihistamine, decongestant and cough suppressant) dries up the nose well, but doesn't suppress coughs for shit.

Casper got cranky about 11:30 am yesterday (during Mr. Rogers - coincidence?) and basically has stayed so. Dozed and cried on and off all afternoon. Wouldn't eat. Very bad indeed between 9pm and midnight - sleeping for 10 minutes, then waking, crying, "don't touch me!", "I'm scared", "I want to sleep in Daddy's bed!", "Go away, Daddy!" - gah. Then slept from 12-4, which was good. Currently sort of vertical, watching PBS kids and putting socks on hands as mittens (hey, playing is a good sign), refusing applesauce and saying, "Mommy!" approximately every 3 minutes.

Mommy is very tired, but stil managing to be patient, except for some bad times between 11 and midnight. At which point Mommy totally bummed herself out thinking, "Oh god, this is what it was like to sleep with an infant. Oh god."

Oh, poor you guys! I hope she feels better soon and that you all get more sleep tonight...and maybe a nap or two today.

FWIW, individual babies can be extremely very different in their sleep habits and other personality/physical quirks. For all you know, Armadillo might very well sleep all night (and party every day). So you're not necessarily D O O M E D.

Don't know its appropriateness for kids.
