Well, I was hoping we would be one of the 'lucky' families who only had to deal with croup through the first year and a half of Jaydon's life but it appears he still has pretty small airways so whenever he gets a cold he gets croup. One of his favorite things to do is go outside and breathe in the cold crisp fresh air. So Jeremy and I were splitting shifts for a few nights in a row of our poor little guy wanting to just go sit outside. Jaydon also decided that he wanted me to sleep next to his crib for a few nights so big ol' pregnant belly and all, I managed to be fairly comfortable on some couch cushions next to his crib so we could hold hands. Pretty sweet and sad all at the same time.
And yes, Jeremy still wears shorts in the snow in the middle of the night when it is in the upper teens or low twenties.
We definitely watched a bit of Sesame Street during the worst of it. This was one of the first times Jaydon has truly been out of it while sick and did not want to move from the couch. Poor kiddo. Not to mention the fact that a week later we had to go back to the Dr. for our first ear infection which led to an epically bad day with Jeremy out of town and waiting in the Drs office for a looooong time and culminating in Jaydon spilling an entire bottle of amoxicillin all over himself and his carseat and some on me and it was just a beautiful mess. We survived!
