Merry Croup-mas

It seems like we're starting a rather unfortunate Christmas tradition. Just like last year, we were at the doctor's office the Saturday before Christmas. This time, with an ear infection that just won't go away and a case of croup (that I swear the croup came on between the time I called for the appointment at 8am and the appointment time of 11:30).

Needless to say, we have a wheezy, barking seal - I mean Nicholas. (I'd rather be dealing with the case of jaundice like last year at this time!)

This afternoon, Nicholas perked up a bit and enjoyed his bottle while looking out at the snow.

Grandma and Grandpa were hosting the big family get-together tonight, but we didn't want to expose the other babes to Nicholas' illness. We went over the for a bit before the family came. Nicholas went straight for Grandma's washing machine - he loves the door and shinny chrome.

Then Grandpa had the impossible feat of trying to get Nicholas to eat. He was successful for about 2 scoops of yogurt and a Teddy Graham. Thanks Grandma for the Santa bib!
