What is the most annoying cough you have ever heard?

Croup? Yes, croup. It sounds like something out of the middle ages or for us horse people, a piece of tack, but it is really the most annoying cough your child can have at 4:00 in the morning.

Nothing gets you out of bed faster than a cry sounding like your child being attacked by a barking seal. Last time I checked we didn't have any seals living at our "crib"! After a sleepless morning of sharing the guest bed with him, a trip to the doctors office and drug store, McDonald's and Wes telling the valet parking guy that he wanted a different car back, we are home.

So much for bowling league for me and pre-school for Wes. However, the look on Wes' face when the valet drove off with our Buick was priceless, far better than the look on his face when he couldn't figure out why he sounded like a seal at 4 am.

Okay, so now I'm off to paint more gourds, play nurse and keep Connor out of the toilet.
