Ok, moms--croup. It's nasty, it's awful, it's forever--or at least it feels like it! Ryan got croup on Sunday and for those of you who don't know, it is just about as bad as the flu in that there's not much you can do about it. It is caused by a virus and it comes with a fever, a cough that sounds like your child became a seal (a loud old mangy one---wait, are seals mangy? anyway...), and all in all, miserable times. Ryan couldn't sleep because this cough would keep her up, so of course, we weren't sleeping either. Believe it or not, this picture was taken on the first day she started feeling a little better--look at those eyes! She was so miserable and tired from not being able to sleep.... Needless to say, we were THRILLED when yesterday she was feeling better and didn't have a fever anymore. WHEW--glad that one's over! (though the grumpiness remains....maybe that's just her being a little bit two?)
