So after my last post, Kade started to get sick. Monday morning he woke up with a cough but tuesday it turned into a fever and runny nose. Tuesday night, we were up quite a bit with him, cause he couldn't breath and get comfortable enough to fall asleep. Wednesday I took him to the Dr. and found out he has the same thing Maxx and Jase had (bronchiolitis.) We gave him a breathing treatment while we were there, and he seemed to have felt better afterwards, or at least he sounded better in his chest. Brought him home, and he just fussed all evening. I couldn't put him down, and was ready to put every kid in bed. Kade didn't sleep long before he woke up and just started screaming. HE had seriously lost it... was screaming, arching his back, didn't want to be put down, didn't want to be picked up. To the point I was in tears because I seriously thought something way wrong with him. We had even given him a breathing treatment, but it didn't help.
About 1:30am I had called the Dr. and talked him, and within 30 minutes or so, he had started to calm down. Then he woke up 2 more times before 6am. By the time 6am rolled around I was grumpy and tired.... I fed him whatever he would eat then handed him over to Seth. Seth showered with him and got him to sleep at around 7. He only slept for 2 1/2 hours! The kid didn't sleep all night, I figured he would have at least slept for 5 (or maybe that was just hopeful thinking). Today I pretty much held him all day... he's starting to act more like himself.
I guess its just hard to have your happy go lucky baby act like someone has ripped his arm off or something. He's always so happy and pleasant and I can't wait for things to get back to the way they were!

Oh Poor Guy! That's crazy, that's exactly what Jonah got! I know exactly what your going through I'm so sorry! It's miserable to see your baby so sick! I can't imagine having to take care of such a sick baby when you have 2 other ones! You are amazing! It's times like these when you appreciate having such healthy children.
The only thing worse than multiple sick kids is when you add mom to the list. Having just been through the flu with 3 of 'em, all I can say is hang in there, it'll be over soon (even if soon feels like only when you look at it in the grand scheme of eternity, lol).
Poor little guy! I hope he feels better soon. For him and your you!
We'll have to do something like that before we move far far away...
