One of the most scariest nights I've had as a mom was last Saturday night! Jackson woke up at 1:00 with this "barking" cough and had a tough time breathing! Steve and I had a long night of rocking him, getting the humidifier going, bundling him up and taking him outside to sit on the porch a few times, and waiting for morning to go to the doctor. The doctor said he definitely has croup! Not fun! So this week has been alot of staying home, trying to be creative with a 2 1/2 year old! We've watched alot of cartoons, disney movies, and curious george; built train tracks, blocks, colored alot, and built alot of forts with ALL the blankets in the house! Being sick with Jack is a lot of fun work! He is getting better and hopefully life will be back to normal soon!

How sad! Cecelia just had croup too. She still has that lingering cough. Hopefully it goes away soon. How is he feeling now? She would get coughing so hard that she would throw up. It was so sad and so disgusting. Hope Jackson didn't do that and hope he is feeling better!
