Humifidiers are great!! We've been using one on our little guy when he shows signs of colds or has one and he breaths (and doesn't cough) much better while sleeping.

No trips to the ER yet (21 months), but tonight he climbed onto a rocking chair by himself...and I continued working in the kitchen. I heard the chair slam onto the wood floors and immediately knew I had screwed up. He did one of those quiet cries where they wind up for about 10 seconds and then let it out fooorrrreeeevvvveeeerrrrrr.... I felt absolutely terrible, but after juice, a bath and a treat, just a bump on the side of his head. I got lucky.
