Elliot woke up at 5am with Croup....we have discovered that he is prone to croup when he gets a cold....his airway just swells a little bit, and there he is breathing through a straw.....so, woke up to him gasping and panicking at 5am. As a parent, its terrifying to hear your son struggling to breath....but i just kept reminding myself to stay calm and to calm him down....so after being outside for a few minutes, he and i settled down to
When morning dawned, not too much later....isaac woke up with his neck glands swollen more than yesturday....so i took him back to the walk in clinic and we were pretty much first ones in.....lovely doctor.....answered a few other questions i had, gave us a prescription for isaac and we left to pick it up and a few other things.
Elliot and chris stayed home and woke up after 11!! So, i guess they both needed sleep....chris actually went back to bed this aft as well for a couple hours!!
Anyways....Isaac and i got home in time to put some soup on....cut up a bunch of homemade bread as well as some buns that rachel grabbed and the church arrived a little after noon!!
We have started going to this sweet little church a few months back. Rachel and I decided that we would like to feed them lunch one day after church......so today was the day!! And what a gorgeous day!!!!
Here are a few pictures:
It was then time to clean up....head home....and chill out for awhile.
Boys played.....Big boys found projects....we girls did who knows what....we didn't have a ton of time to sit....but the afternoon went by....in the sun....watching boys play....it was nice.
Taught Rach how to drive the golf cart......i made dinner {2 broccoli and cheese Quiches.....only 1 made it to the oven....the other got tossed when i burned my arm on the way into the oven....sigh.....a whole quiche...literally down the drain, down the wall, down the oven door......}. OK....so now dinner for 9 was down to 1 quiche and i pillaged 3 smokies from deep in the freezer, a yellow pepper with dip and some fresh pineapple.
I am tired.....chris is making popcorn and we are going to watch a new episode of AFV....ahh...sunday night.....
