On Time This Time

Sorry about that last one. With everything going on, I plum forgot to publish the post.

This will be a quick one. Just a few things to say. First of all, I cannot believe how fast Conan is growing. My goodness! He seemed to have stayed about the same size for about the first 4 weeks, then suddenly overnight he doubled in size. He's not my tiny newborn anymore. He's a baby now. And his head is starting to catch up with Miles' and Ben's.

Also, Miles is sick again. We really did have a pretty good run there. It's been three months since we've been in the hospital and about a month and a half since he's been really sick. Right now, it seems to just be breathing problems, but I wouldn't be surprised if there were a sore throat or something hiding that I didn't know about. What I'm saying is that Miles is acting fine. Hasn't had a fever or been sluggish or throwing up, but his breathing is awful. He's also coughing constantly. That's not to say he has a cough though. I can tell by the sound that it's intentional coughing to try to loosen his constricted airways. I guess that's the benefit of having the same (or at least similar) ailment as your child. I recognize that cough from when I have asthma and either don't have an inhaler with me, or it isn't doing the trick. Unfortunately, along with recognizing the cough is knowing how awful it feels. I'm 30, and that's one of the worst feelings to me. I can only imagine what it's like for a 2 year old. Anyhow, we've bee giving him treatments pretty regularly, but it's not really doing the trick. Right now we're kind of in limbo because it's not improving, but it's not really getting worse either, and it's not to the point that I can really justify going to the hospital. I really kind of need it to go one direction or the other to get things taken care of, preferably in the better direction.

Other than that, all that's going on is pretty normal. Ben's finishing up the semester (and because of that I didn't get any of my basement done during his paternity leave--Boo!), and then we'll just have one last one, and Ben will be the barer of two more degrees, Business and Finance. Good job! And me, I'm just trying to wrangle to naughty little boys (and one pretty naughty big boy) and get my house back to looking like a house. When I get bored of that, I plan out our upcoming Disneyland trip. Having that to look forward to is helping me maintain what little sanity I have left. Man, am I excited! (I've even started packing despite the trip being a month and a half away)
