Sunday night 10 pm, Chloee had this weird raspy cough and since she's never been sick before (other than a regular fever that only lasts 2 hrs) I got really worried but the after hours clinic closes at ten so I called the nurse on call to figure out if I should take Chlo to the hospital or wait until the next day, the nurse recommended that if she looked fine to just keep her propped up with a pillow so she could breathe and have a humidifier in the room, so we opted to just keep an eye on her that night so Hyrum and I started watching a movie but half way through the show she woke up coughing so loud and barky sounding and I freaked out and called the nurse again and she heard her over the phone and said "honey it looks like she has croup" I immediately got up and started packing stuff up to take her to the E R. I didn't know what that was and Josh nor Kate have ever had it. I called my mom so she could come with me and Hyrum stayed with the kids to not have to wake them up and bring them with us. At the hospital my little girl was so good through her breathing treatment and took her Prednisone so well and I was so relieved to hear it was nothing serious and it goes away in a day or two and its not contagious phew! I acted like a first time mom it was ridiculous but I don't like messing with my kids health. By the next day she was doing great!

Oh how sad! Having a sick baby is never fun! Way to go Chloee for being such a good sport, the hospital can be a scary place for kids especially the first time sick! I'm glad she's doing better! :) look at her she's such a cutie even when she's sick!
