A Happy New Year & Sick kids

Happy New Year to you all! We are excited for a new year of possibilities and new goals to be accomplished. Lucas is moving from the SouthCentral Area Command (the strip) to the Southast Area Command. He is very excited to work at this new area, which happens to be the area where he grew up. He is that more excited that his mom and dads house is right across the street from the station, so he can pop over now and again. It is a little closer to home, so we are very happy. He is still working graveyard and still has the same days off. So, as far as the sick kids go, we had Gavin at the ER last week with Croup and a high fever. Both Tyrone and Gavin have had that nasty cough before, but Gavin scared me because he was wheezing so badly and could barely catch his breath. He got a breathing treatment and some Tylenol for his fever and was sent home after a few hours. He has had a lingering cough for a week now. I am so sick of telling him to "cover his mouth" when coughing. Then at the same time Gavin had croup, Tyrone had this nasty phlegmy cough and a constant runny nose, which he insists on wiping with his tongue. He has had that for about 2 weeks and that's not going anywhere either. Then this morning, we got up early because our church time went from 2pm to 9am, which we are very happy about. We were sitting eating breakfast and I noticed that Tyrone has pink eye, in both eyes. Yep! So, I staying home from church with Tyrone and Niamh. Does it ever end?????? I guess it's the season for it. I should be grateful, Niamh has not gotten sick, fingers crossed. Niamh is doing great. She is so happy and loves to smile. It melts my heart. She loves to coo and trys to talk to us all the time. When she is laying on my pillow in our bed, she tries to sit up. She is very smart and was upset at her daddy the other day and when he tried to burp her, she dug her nails in his neck and left a scratch. Hopefully that fiestiness is not from me :) She will be 3 months on the 20th of January. At her 2 month appt, she weighed 12lbs 8oz and she was 23in long. Gavin and Tyrone just love her and try to make her smile all day. It's precious!
