Make this Croup crap go away!

Well Tuesday I got a call while at work from my mom that Dj was running a fever and cranky. We just assumed it was the beginning of a cold or teething so the plan was to take Wednesday off and get a drs appt. By the time we got home he and I rested and all of a sudden a heard this funky cough?! So we gave him Tylenol and began dinner. I called the on call dr and when he called back said it sounds like he has croup. If it gets worse go to the ER! What the ER?! So we packed some bags hung out in a steamed bathroom and headed to the ER! At the ER we heard 6 hr wait! R U Kidding!! So he got a breathing treatment and started coughing pretty bad after that...which followed by Dj turning BLUE! We were rushed back put on cool mist tube, chest X-ray, IV, and all kinds of bloodwork. Our poor lil man had it rough! Finally after panicking crying and all the emotions in between we say Dr. Smith the on call pedi dr. He sent us up to the Meeks Children's floor so that we could be monitored overnight. After a day of playing coughing crying and finally being able to breathe we went home at 10 pm!!

Fall is in the Air!

Well finally there has been a small break in the heat and our mornings are cooler! It definitely feels like FALL! I switched out our table cloth and bought some CUTE new decorations! I love it even more because I bought everything on sale and with a coupon!! Today David and his friend Josh were busy building the base of our new storage building! We finished the night having dinner and catching up with some old friends that are in town for the weekend....now THOR!
