Caiden started coughing on the day of his birthday party and started getting worse. By Monday, he was in no shape to go to school so mom came over so Tiff & Sean could get on the road. By Tuesday night, Ashlyn had started the cough, and began running a fever (maybe?! I checked in her bottom forgetting it is a degree higher that way!) I was up with her from midnight on, making sure she could breathe okay and watching her temp. That made for a really long day at school on Wednesday (and I had my evaluation!) Jon took off work Wed., mom came to help, and both kids went to the Dr. Caiden had RSV but was at the end of it (although 3 days later he still has a good cough every now and then) but Ashlyn was on day 1 of her RSV diagnosis. On top of that, she had the beginnings of an ear infection so she got her first dose of amoxicillin. Boo. We're patiently (not really) waiting for day 5 to come and go since days 3-5 are supposed to be the worse. It's so hard hearing her cough and struggle for air. She's been a good sport and doesn't seem to uncomfortable; still eating and sleeping pretty well. She's gotten spoiled and been able to sleep in her swing for a few nights so she can sit up some. Hope she goes back to her bed okay!

So sad. Hey...sleeping in the swing can't be too bad (until she gets to big for it). No worries. She's go back to her comfy crib perfectly!!!!
