What To Say
You all are so great. Xanga is like sending out an SOS...I need encouragement....HELP! Then you all respond and help to brighten the day...THANK YOU! And thanks for your suggestions too...I am all for that. No, we did not get any prescription cough medicine (although that would have been nice), we just got an antibiotic (which I don't think is really helping). I have been using Delsym (the only cough medicine that I think really works) and that is about it. Landon's cough is still pretty much only when he is lying down or first thing when he gets up...but it is still there all night and nap. Maybe a little better...but still there. I am supposed to take him back tomorrow if it is not markedly better. Why? I don't know. What else is she going to do? I hate making decisions like this. I just want it to get better and I just want my life back!!!!!!!!!!
In other news, Jonathan heard this report on MPR about how kids nowadays are too dependent on toys and it is affecting their brain development and intelligence. So today when Landon built this ark (see picture) out of nothing but cushions, blankets, rugs and recycle bags I had to take a picture to show my husband. He will be so happy to see that Landon free played with everyday things..and you should have heard the kid driving his ark through the ocean. He was having a hay day 
Noah is still all over the place. He is standing on his own and took one step yesterday....I know..one...ohhh. I remain in no hurry for him to walk...I wish I could keep him just the way he is now forever...but alas it is coming. Today I was emptying the dishwasher and stepped away for a moment to help Landon with something. When I came back, Noah was ON the dishwasher door playing in (and probably eating) the leftover water. That kid just loves life and lives it to its fullest. I can't wait to see what he becomes one day.
I am out of time, friends. Please keep praying for us. This sickness, while it is not awful, is persistent and definitely affecting our lives. I don't know if I should take Landon back to the doctor tomorrow (I don't want to pay for nothing, but he really isn't that much better). His cough has changed...it is a little looser now, but very much still present. I need wisdom and I need health and I need SLEEP. Thanks again friends for supporting and encouraging me so much in that last post. I just love my little xanga community!!!!
