Little Sickies

We've had a nuisance of a cold virus spiraling around through the house the last week or so.  Penn is pretty much over it, Janse just seems to be hanging out in it.  Poor kid.  He still smiles though.
Tavin didn't get taken down too bad by it, but he did develop quite a cough and then we noticed a very obvious wheezing.  So, we took him to the doctor.  They are thoughtful that it could be asthma, but they aren't willing to call it yet.  They gave him a steroid breathing treatment and watched and listened for a bit.
We have to give him treatments now every 4-6 hours and then he has a check-in on Friday, we'll see where this goes.  It could just be respiratory irritation from the cold and his seasonal allergies, but we are now monitoring the possibility of asthma.  Tav remains his strong, sweet self.  He and Penn had some fun singing for Doug in the bath tonight.
You gotta love how these boys are such troopers.  Not much gets them down!
