Doctors galore

One of the more terrifying moments in my life was at 12 am this morning. Viola had a croup atrack. She started to cough and sounded like a seal...she was gasping for air and shaking. I got her calmed down enough and after sitting in the bathroom with the shower on piping hot, she fell back to sleep. 
We went to the chiropractor this morning for Henry, thinking maybe an adjustment might make him more comfortable. There's construction in front of the building-the girls were amazed!
We then took Viola to the dr. She was given a three day steroid to knock the bark out of her cough (it doesn't get rid of it, just the part that tightens her airway). I hope tonight is more peaceful for her. She did great at the dr!
When the dr was looking at Viola, Henry started to cough and cry so he wanted to check him out again. Next thing I knew we had three nurses in there doing vitals and I was slightly nervous at first. Everything checked out just fine!
Getting his oxygen level checked (98%). Turns out he has the start of an ear infection. He's still hardly eating and coughing a lot. Hopefully the amoxicillin kicks in fast! I'm tired if the doctors office!! 
Doing some balancing while leaving the doctor.
We had a very late evening. Picked Ryan up from work after seven and still working on getting Henry to sleep. Good thing is, both girls are out! 

Until tomorrow!
