Prayers for Su, please

First of all...please don't be alarmed by the title of the post. It's certainly nothing life threatening. Su had a rough day and is having a rough time with her health. In my previous posts, I think I have neglected to mention that she's had cough, cold, and congrestion since about a week before Patrick was born. So we're going on three weeks of this stuff. She's not taking medicine as the doctor's fear it might dry up her breast milk. So she's coughing and coughing and coughing and coughing and coughing. Obviously, this hurts her incision from her c-section. Today, she's coughing so hard, she's actually thrown up about three times. I feel so bad for her. So when I say she's "tough as nails," as I did it a previous post, now you see why. But I'd really like for everyone who prays to please include her in your list. We both need this to go away! It's frustrating for me to watch.

On to other things, the boys are still doing well. Jacob liked the picture I snapped of Patrick in his bassinet the other day so he decided he wanted one of his own in the Moses basket. I believe Jacob has spent more time in the Moses basket this week than he did when he was an infant! Below, you'll also see how Patrick is progressing. Amazingly enough, he has not gotten sick and we worry that he will so keep us all in your thoughts!

Hang in there, Su!

Oh wow, Suzanne you ARE tough as nails, I'm so sorry you are feeling so terribly, that must be extra rough with it being the few weeks with Patrick, I'm praying for you to start feeling better and to find strenghth to keep your spirits up. On a side note, I've heard that the breast fed baby is usually the one who doesn't get sick because he is receiving natural antibodies in your milk, let's hope that's the case here. Your boys are adorable! Jacob in the moses basket is hilarious, Madeline has been fascinated with all the baby stuff too and wants to "try" them all out, Ha!

Davis, Congratulations on Patrick! What a doll. Will definitely put Suzanne on my prayer list. The challenge of adjusting to two in those first few weeks is exhausting enough, I can't imagine it with being sick. Hope she feels better soon.

Suzanne - you will be in my thoughts and prayers. It's hard enough to recover from a C-section without being sick. Hang in there.
