croup this time.  i was telling my friend, danielle, that the houle kids don't just get colds and flus, they get hand, foot, and mouth disease, and strep throat and croup. what is with us!?!

both monday and tuesday were rough on aves and ash.  both of them asked for their nap on both days.  that's something.

we got steroids on monday and have managed to sleep at least a little bit the past few nights.  we have one more dose of steroids and it will go to whoever wakes us up first with that unmistakable barking cough. 

everyone seems to be better today.  there have been no fevers and yes, i did let them play in the snow for a bit.  cold air helps those little restricted lungs, they say.

today has been marvelous.  coffee and christmas music and that snow just keeps falling!  it's not sticking, but it sure has been fun to watch it fall.

even ian got to play in the snow for the first time today!  he was in shock i think.

i have my mri tomorrow.  i'm not really sure what i'm hoping for.  answers without surgery i guess....wouldn't that be nice?
