What are the chances..

..that both of our boys would be susceptible to croup?

100%!

Samson hasn't been feeling well since Monday. He has had a fever since then and last night got super congested and started coughing a wretched cough. A few times in the middle of the night we had to get up with him because he was barking that croup cough that we know so well. Dan even took him outside (our little trick we use with Elijah), but it didn't do much. He barked through the entire night. It's such an awful sound.

Elijah did a lot of coughing for the second night in a row, too, but thankfully not the croup cough. I don't think any of us got more than a 20-minute stretch of sleep at a time. We woke up a very tired little family. And of course it's my super busy week at work. Of course! Woooo!

I'm praying for a miracle tonight. We need sleep!

Praying! We've got coughers this week too, but thankfully not croupers. Hope your week improves quickly!

Samson is so precious--but I really need my Elijah picture fix. I miss seeing his funny expressions. Hope both boys are feeling better soon.
