Justin Boy!

Well, Justin's croup is much better than it was. Now, it's more just a cold with a really runny nose. I feel bad for the poor baby, because he doesn't know how to breathe through his mouth when his nose is stuffed up. He's having trouble getting that whole thing down. I think he's beginning to get the hang of it. :) No one else in the family has it yet, Praise God! We thought Jason was coming down with it, but he hasn't coughed anymore. :) Lisa hasn't shown any signs of getting it. I pray that everyone else stays well, especially Lisa! I don't want to have to go through what we had to go through with Justin. I guess we know what to do now, and we know what it is. The doctor said if the baby seems to have trouble breathing (like, it sounds like they are really laboring...) take them outside into the cold air. She said that really helps clear their lungs and throat. We had been steaming up the bathroom and taking Justin in there, which seemed to help a little, but she said it would be much better to take them outside. Obviously, you are supposed to bundle them up. :P I'm hoping Justin won't have any real trouble breathing, partially because he won't like having to be bundled up just to sit outside when he tired, and wants to sleep; and partially because I just don't want him to have that annoyance!

We would really appreciate prayers specifically for Justin and Lisa. Justin, that he will be completely over this soon, and Lisa that she won't get it. And that the rest of us don't get it! :)

Thanks!
