Icky Sicky

One of my least favorites sicknesses the kiddos can get is croop (sp?) or has I call it, the smoker's cough. That is exactly what it sounds like. Like my kids kicked back a pack of cigs all day and their lungs can't seem to handle it. Sometimes it sounds like a sick barking dog too. Poor kids are both running their courses through it. And it makes me so sad that there really isn't much you can do but just let it run its own course. Adalie is about done with her little spell, but Cason's just started yesterday and I can feel the worst coming tonight. We haven't had a lot of sleep around here. Cason has been up every hour almost for 3 days with yet another ear infection and now he has croop coming on. I know it will be a few more long nights. I lose my mind when I don't get any sleep. I am sure glad Brett didn't meet me on a day where I hadn't had a good 6 or 7 hours of sleep. He would've been running for the hills. We don't take anything each other might say between the hours or 1 am and 5 am too seriously because we both know that's when we are at our worst. It is, however, a good time to pull the, "Don't you remember I told you last night trick?" and pretend you forgot what they said/asked you to do the next day haha. Anywho, my lack of blogging is due to lack of sleep. No happy Campers around this house much this week. Although, today the sun is out and shining through my living room windows, over the hills of snow....that makes me feel a little happy =)
