CROUP!!!! I found jack on the floor by the bathroom last night (only after dave alerted me to the noise-y'all know i would have slept right through!) barking like a seal, body burning up. after calling the nurse (kristi-i know i should have just called you-resident croup expert), i decided to sleep in his room to make sure he kept breathing. he did (LOUDLY!) with lots of fits & moans. took him to the doctor today, who gave us meds and said i probably have grown-up croup (my voice is gone) and mia will probably get kid croup any time now (maybe this would explain her being a COMPLETE CRANKMONSTER this morning??). so, we are croup-a-licious over here. things seem better today but i hear symptoms often return again at night, so...i'll probably be air mattress momma again tonight. nehoo, those scary middle of the night experiences always make me thankful to have mostly well kids most of the time.
