Easter

It took me a while to post our Easter pictures because I had to get some of the pictures off of my old phone so these are a little late. Jack's first Easter was not a very happy one. Hopefully next year will be more enjoyable. At about 7:00 pm on the night before Easter, we were out running a few errands and Jack started to cough a little funny. Jack's cough sounded a little bit like croup but he had been totally fine all day so when we got home we put him to bed. He woke up around 9:00 pm and the cough sounded a little worse but I rocked him back to sleep and put him to bed. At around 11:30 pm he woke up really struggling to breathe. He was looking at us with a panicked look and he really sounded like he was not getting enough air. Bagley said we should take him to the ER and since my doctor husband was nervous, that made me really nervous. We got to the ER and he did have croup. It was bad enough that we had to stay in the ER for several hours while they gave Jack some steroids and a couple of breathing treatments and then monitored him for about 3 hours. Jack was such a champ. Even though he sounded and probably felt awful, he kept smiling at the all of the ER personnel. Everyone loved him. The only part he really struggled with was having to do the breathing treatments. We arrived home about 4:30 am and spent Easter Sunday at home. When Jack was feeling better, I took some photos of him with his Easter basket.
