It's been a rough one

Today hasn't been one of my best days. It was a hard night. Josh and Tyler both have colds and woke up coughing and then crying a lot. Tony ended up sleeping with Josh in the rocking chair, which made for a long night for him too. Lets just say we both "woke up on the wrong side of the bed." Sometimes I feel like we just do not communicate very well. I also feel like when we talk about needed change, it is always me that has to do the changing. It's frustrating.

Josh's breathing sounded so bad this morning so I decided that we needed to take him to see the doctor. We had to take Tyler in to have his stitches checked, so it all worked out. The doctor said that Tyler's stitches looked good and Tyler was such a big boy when she checked them. Josh's oxygen was good and she said that his lungs sounded good as well. So she put him on a daily inhaler of a lung steroid to help his lungs. It is suppose to help him so that he doesn't wheeze so much when he gets colds. I have to do it every day for a couple months, but she said that maybe I won't have to during the summer. It just depends on if he continues to get more colds. She also said that he would probably grow out of it and there is a good chance that he wont have asthma when he older. Poor little guy. He has lung problems (darn RSV) and a sensitive tummy. He is such a trouper.

Both Tyler and Josh took good naps today, so that is really good. I hope that they sleep well tonight. Tony works nights this week (and next week too), so he wont be home until around midnight. I know that we all could use some good sleep, but with all the coughing...it will probably be a long night...again.
