Bronchitis

yep, bronchitis. Both kids have it. It's awful. Conner literally laid around for 18hours or so. He's still not back to his normal energy level but he's getting there.

Parker never got as bad as Conner but he has wanted me to hold him more (oh how I wish I had a photo of that). Conner and I have been playing more games while Parker rests. He currently loves the Super Why Bingo. It's really fun and it teaches letters! score.







 

All I know is that 2 sick kids is tough on a mama! I hope I don't get it!

>Last week, Conner started coughing and had a mild fever. It really sounded "barky" so I called the pedi and off we went. They diagnosed him with croup and gave him a steriod dose and sent us on our way. By Christmas Day, his cough was so much worse and keeping his temp at a reasonable number was proving to be a trying task. The poor baby was on tyleonl and motrin around the clock; even so the fever was not getting below 101. Josh and I thought we would surely end up at Children's healthcare. Sunday, his fever broke! Monday, Parker started with a low grade fever and by last night, he had picked up the upper respiratory infection and the coughing and snot started for him. We went back to the pedi today...Both kids have an upper respiratory infection. Conner has a double ear infection and Parker has a single. We were granted the right for prescriptions! I was thrilled to hear that. Who wants kids that have ear infections but no meds for the infections.

So, that's what I've been up to...sleepless nights with 2 sick babies.

We did have a nice Christmas but I haven't even uploaded the images yet. I'll share those; I promise.
