It has been a pretty long week here in the Wisler houshold. Melissa took off for a week long business trip to South Dakota on Monday, but our plans for me to drive her to the airport didn’t work out because Mac Jr. was having coughing fits that were so bad they caused him to vomit. The doctor said it is asthma and prescribed medication which he takes through a nebulizer, which is like a vaporizer. The little guy doesn’t like to use the breathing mask that comes with it though so I have to hold him in my lap and keep the mouthpeice next to his face so that he gets his full dosage. I feel so sad when my kids get sick, although I don’t mind the extra time I get to spend with them making them feel comfortable. This also makes 2 for 2 on the kids puking on daddy. That was kind of one of my worst fears of parenting, but, after it happened, it really wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. Now I just fear for the times when we catch them playing in their own diapers. Ok, enough of the gross parenting talk.
So, yeah, I have been playing the solo parenting routine while Melissa has been gone and also planning Mac Jr’s birthday party for Saturday, he will be a whole 2 years old! Of course I have to make the obligatory comment about WOW, they are growing up so fast! 2 YEARS OLD! And this is our second child! It really seems like he was born last week. Of course, he has grown so much. Below is a short video of the day we brought little Mac home from the hospital and introduced Ada to him.
