We also found our our little guy has his daddy's lungs. All this cough/congestion=reactive airway disease, typically the term more commonly known as "asthma". I've learned that in infants it's too early to call it asthma. Caleb had the exact same thing as a baby and he grew out of it, so I'm hoping Carter will do the same. The doctor did have us purchase a nebulizer vs rent one if that tells us anything :). So, our life is now filled with breathing treatments 2x/day. The boy hates his breathing treatments but it is SO nice to finally have an answer. Caleb is great at giving him his treatments and the only thing that can *sometimes* calm him down is singing. Caleb won't let me take video but I LOVE to hear Caleb sing to Carter. Remembering words to songs is not Caleb's strength (this and probably reading comprehension are about the only 2 things that I'm "better" at!) so I LOVE the words to the kiddie songs. I think this morning it was "daddy's gonna buy you a frisbee...and if that frisbee doesn't fly, daddy's gonna buy you a basketball...". My other favorite from this morning was wheels on the bus and "the kids on the bus go ahhhhhh!" and then "the driver on the bus says be quiet kids!". Haha. Love it and love him.
Baby dedication this weekend, lots of family coming in town! Pics to come!
