Happy Thanksgiving!

Caroline's had a rough weekend. She started with a cough Tuesday night and by Wednesday was really working hard to breathe. She had a positive trach culture and was put in an antibiotic in addition to steroids galore to help with the inflammation, breathing treatments every four hours, lots of chest pt and sxning!!! We've taken advantage of being home and put the Christmas tree up. The kids are excited about decorating it tomorrow! We're going to take it easy this week and enjoy being out of school! I love having the kids home.

Caroline tried a wheelchair dance class last night and really enjoyed it.

Triple Threat

Caroline's teacher sent a note home today. It read,

"3 E+ is called the Triple Threat. Out of the whole class, only two people got the triple. Go Caroline Go!"

That's my girl! An "E" is a 3rd grade "A."

No big news really. Caroline saw her Pediatrician last week because she had some nasal and chest junk that wasn't clearing on its own and Dr. Hassel diagnosed her with "junkola." Nothing a few days of Zithromax won't clear. She even gave her another 10 days of Omnicef to back it up. She seems to be feeling good. The antibiotics will keep things at bay.

The kids had a great time trick-or-treating with their cousins and neighbors. My sister and her gang spent the weekend with us. It was fun having them all here. I'll post some pictures soon.

Last night was Kincaid's pizza night and both kids won the ticket jackpot. Ohhh, they live for those tickets, don't they?!

We want to congratulate our friend, Sydney, and her team, for placing second on the softball tournament. Way to go, Syd! Can't wait to see your trophy!

The kids are out of school. We're headed to the polls to vote as soon as Miss C decides to wake up!

Hope you all have a healthy, safe and fun week! Fall is definitely in the air. Can you believe Thanksgiving is in a few weeks? We have so much to be thankful for this year! SP
