Getting Ready for Disney

We leave bright and early Saturday morning for Orlando!! I have new DS games, new movies, and new books, markers, crayons, coloring books, etc., all stashed away and ready to be pulled out at that first moment of boredom. The car seats have been washed, the car cleaned out, and most of the things that can be packed ahead of time is ready to go. Now the mental preparation begins :)

We started this week out on a rough note. Dylan had a croup attack on Friday night. We ALMOST went to the ER, but managed to control it from home this time with steroids and breathing treatments and a long night in a steamy bathroom. He has been fine ever since, other than his normal asthma cough every now and then. THEN, Adam had a croup attack on Sunday night. Again, we ALMOST went to the ER, and we probably should have. He was the worst I have ever seen him, but we did manage to control it from home. I think I have built too much confidence from all of Dylan's experiences to handle things on my own. Have I ever told you how much I hate going to the ER? Anyway, I did take him to the doc on Monday and she put him on an antibiotic and gave him 2 steroid shots. On Wednesday, he went downhill again, and back to the doc we went. Have I ever told you how much I hate going to the doctor's office? Now he is on Tamaflu. Nice. My hope is that he gets better before Saturday, and nobody else gets what he has!!! Can I be that lucky???

Regan has 2 loose teeth...she wanted me to add that in here. She wiggles them everyday. I guess I wouldn't go so far as to say they are "loose", but they do wiggle...a little. hee hee. She wants to lose a tooth so bad! I need to find some tooth fairy pillows soon.

I don't have any new pictures to post, but I know I will have TONS when we get back next weekend. I hope everyone has a wonderful Valentine's Day!!!

Love, Wendy
