And we're still coughing

Yep, that's right.  All four of us are still coughing.  This cold needs to leave this house and never, ever come back.  I must say that we are at least sounding better, but the coughs still lingers.  I finished my antibiotics from the bronchitis that I had last week.  My lungs are feeling tons better, but I am still coughing.  Laughing always brings on my coughs.  Crying really gets the boys coughs going...then it usually ends in them throwing up from coughing so hard.  I have been giving them their vitamins daily and trying to up their intake of vitamin C, I only hope that these things are working.

The other day Tyler was being a pill and he was sent to his room.  After a couple minutes I went in there to check on him and I found him sitting in the closet pouting.  So I left him there to pout.  After a while I noticed that he still hadn't come out so I went and found him asleep on the hard toy chest.  I figured he must have been pretty tired because of how he was acting, but I didn't think he would fall asleep on the toy chest.  I checked on him about a half an hour later and he had moved to the bed and covered himself with pillows and blankets and went back to sleep.  Then last night Tyler fell asleep at 6:30 pm in the chair.  This cold is really taking a lot out of him.  I'm glad he's getting the extra sleep his little body needs.  Josh has slept in a couple times, but still hasn't been napping.  I guess those days truly are over.  I wish he would've waited until this next baby was at least six months old to stop napping, but I guess this way Tony and I get to enjoy quiet evenings.
