sickness update!

well everyone is better around here thank goodness, they just have the lingering after effects of their colds, little runny noses but both are great now! the colds usually last about 10 days and there is really nothing you can give to them i usually just dish out the vicks baby rub and the vaporizer and all the nursing for paisley and loves and cuddles for carrson that they can stand and then one day they are just better. :) christmas is coming fast! wow!! and carrson is now 3 yikes! too fast just too fast!

Sick kiddos... :(

Well after 6 months and 4 days Paisley is officially SICK :( she has a runny nose, and cough and watery eyes. The cough and runny nose I can handle, I know things need to run their course and there isnt much you can do to interfere. But today when her normal cough turned in to a barking cough, thats when I start to interfere. So instead of calling her Ped where all they are going to say is come in and then there we are just exposed to all kinds of germs right now while all kinds of kids are sick with much worse, I call my trusty midwife Kelly. So now both the kids are on Elderberry and Robitussin DM as needed. Carrson is getting better, his cold seems to be on its way out, he only coughs occasionally mainly at night or when he has been playing too hard. But Paisley is right smack in the middle of hers, right at the point where it gets worse before it gets better, so stuffy (sucking out her nose like crazy)and congested to where her little nose just leeks. Her little cough is so sad but for being sick she at least seems in good spirits most of the time besides needing to eat every 2 hours and taking some really long naps lately but hopefully our house if clear of the yuck very soon!
