The Croup

Well, it's been a interesting week. On Saturday we volunteered to watch Bailee and Brit, and I am pretty sure that I am now definetly NOT having 3 kids. They were here for 4 hours and I never sat down once, it was crazy...fun...but wow, 2 10 months olds and a 3 year old, its a lot of work, once again my appreciation and admiration for all those mothers of twins is rekindled. Sunday we did a lot of sitting around, Kenzie is getting her second top tooth so she was a little cranky. Sunday night she did not sleep at all, she was up every hour and I did not like it one bit. Monday night was worse and Waylon ended up staying up with her most of the night so he could hold her vertically while she was sleeping. Tuesday he took her to the Dr. Harris and as it turns out, not only is she getting a tooth, but she also has croup. So she is all barky and whiney and hurting and not happy at all. We have been doping her up on Benadryl and Tylenol and the house feels like a sauna with the humifier going all the time, but she is getting better. The last two nights she only woke up once. Tomorrow night my mom is taking her so she may be in for more than she bargained for.
