I noticed that Logan had coughed three times on Monday morning, but no big deal and he went to school as usual.  He was fine the evening and had a great appetite at our taco dinner.  He went to bed but woke up at 11:30pm.  He complained feeling warm, and we noticed that he had a croup cough then.  He started to have a runny nose too.  He could not return to sleep and finally asked to sleep with me which was unusual.  Due to the bad sounding cough, Stuart decided to give up his spot for Logan.  Logan was happy to sleep in our bed, and after some twisting and turning, he fell asleep.  His breathing sounded like a whistle and a bit more labored initially.  Throughout the night, Logan moved around quite a bit but the breathing returned to normal.  This morning he sounded congested and still had some runny nose, but overall, he seemed fine.  But with the croup last night, we decided to keep Logan at home today.

    It was Stuart’s turn to take Connor today as I needed to go to work, and now he gained another kid.  It ended up to a relative tough day for him.  Logan was actually acting fine other than with a slightly scratchy voice and the mild runny nose, but Stuart wanted to keep them both at home to avoid taking a sick kid out.  Stuart also had to help troubleshoot something at work even though he had taken a day off.  Stuart played different board games with both of them.  Both kids were a bit high maintenance as they often wanted to do different things so Stuart was happy when I came home.  We all took a walk after dinner just to get out of the house a bit.  Tomorrow we should return to some routine but with me staying home with Connor then.
