It’s currently 6:30 a.m. and I’m listening to Allison coughing in her room. She’s been a really great sleeper; she’ll usually sleep from 7:30 to 7:30 with no problems. But of course, when a toddler gets sick, all that just goes out the window. She’s been doing pretty good during the night, but it seems that once 5:00 a.m. hits, she just suddenly gets a coughing fit that lasts over an hour, easily. Since 6:00 this morning, she’ll cough, maybe whine about it for a few seconds, then go quiet. Then more coughing, and suddenly MOMMY I’M AWAKE NOW noises. Then coughing, then quiet. It’s a never-ending cycle. I just wanted to get some work done before she woke up! And now everyone in the house has a cold of some sort so we all get to suffer together!
So yes, something that makes me crazy, especially today, is sickness. More specifically, toddler sickness. And now that it’s 1:30 and she’s finally napping, maybe I can get some work done!

Ta-da! I FOUND YOU. I am following you! I am liking your facebook page. Creepy, huh?
I have a child with asthma and now that he’s 14, they are saying it’s “reactive airway disease,” which sounds really scary, but apparently it’s a step down from asthma. Night-time coughing is the worst. Does she sound barky or wheezy? I hope she gets better soon. 🙂

Oh my, I’m sorry to hear that! It’s mostly just a dry cough from getting over her cold. Lots of drainage from her runny nose. =) She should get better in a couple days hopefully!
