The Happy Wheezer

To my loyal blog followers, my apologies for not posting this week.  We've had a rough week at the Doren household.  Elliott has been quite sick.  He went to the pediatrician on Monday.  And Wednesday.  And Thursday.  And Friday.  It started with a cough and progressed into lots of wheezing and labored breathing. The doctors were very close to sending him to the hospital on Wednesday but he was still eating well and smiling.  So, they started calling him The Happy Wheezer and we stayed out of the hospital.  He seems to be on the mend now but is still coughing quite a bit.  Poor little boy!  Jesse has been amazing through this whole thing.  He has taken excellent care of both of us (I have a sinus infection too).  I love my boys!

A bit out of sorts

Elliott has to use a nebulizer multiple times a day.  Sometimes he is very upset by it and cries the whole time. Other times he is calm and gums on the mouth piece.  We've found that some distraction from the tv makes it  easier on us.  Here are Jesse and Elliott watching tv while getting meds.
