The Croup Tent



This is our croup tent. Talan and Lincoln seem to be prone to catching this nasty little virus. Since September Talan has had it 4 times (1 ER visit and 3 round of steroids) Lincoln has had it twice. We have spent many nights driving around the neighborhood at 1am with our car windows rolled down. The cool air reduces the swelling and allows him to breath easier. Jason and I were laughing last night as we circled the block for about the 10th time that no one has called the cops yet, thinking that we were scouting out the neighborhood. When we finally get the breathing under control we set up the croup tent. We put a cool air humidifier in the tent and it fills with a nice cool mist that keep the kids comfortable. The boys love sleeping in it. We usually equip it with the portable DVD player and movies. I am sure that the croup tent will be one of their memories of childhood.
