ER

we had a great weekend! we rode 4 wheelers on saturday and sunday. the weather was beautiful sunday afternoon. we went to this guy's house where there were 7 kids between the ages of 2.5 and 6. they had a blast running around, riding bikes and playing. there's a creek on the property and we took the kiddos to stick their toes in. we also got to get dirty and do some riding... great afternoon.

the remainder of sunday evening didn't turn out so hot. we got home, ate dinner, bath time, etc. and everything seemed fine. around midnight cj woke up with that wonderful seal cough... that's right, croup time. he was trying to sleep and gasping for breath and just down right miserable. craig and i kinda freaked out because it came on so quickly; he really had no symptoms all weekend. so i took him to the ER at midnight.... got home at 1:30. very tired. he's doing well... he never had a fever and they gave him an anti inflammatory to help his throat. they said this should stay in his system for the next 48-72 hours, so i'm hoping we get good sleep tonight. he's had croup once before, but it wasn't quite so sudden. really freaked us out. oh, the joys of parenting. :) you love em so much and they scare you to death! wouldn't have it any other way though.

this week will be good i hope. busy at work, that's for sure. i've also started going to the gym again. nice to get some exercise, endorphins, and stress release. this coming weekend is prep-weekend, because march 5th we're off to the races!

snow is forecasted for tomorrow... we'll see if that really happens. until later.
