Croup Returns to the Lucero Household

Overall, we are blessed to have healthy kiddos.   Until now, croup has only paid one visit to our home - Christian.   This week, it has returned to spend time with Scarlett. 

The first order of business was a doc visit and oral steroids (which she downed like a champ!).   The next order of business was to spend the night in a recliner, since croup is worse at night when a child is laying flat.  

Keeping her upright did the trick - she slept peacefully with little coughing!  And, of course, Hello Kitty joined in on the action. :)
