Sam gave us a scare last night.
He’s got a rough sounding cough and last night at 10:30 it looked like he was having serious problems breathing so we carted him off to CHEO. Turns out he has croup. Classic symptoms. Shortness of breath in the evening. Cough that sounds like a seal barking. They gave him some kids tylenol and an oral steroid and told me to get him some cold fresh air outdoors if it happens again or back to the hospital if that doesn’t help him.
This morning he was up at 7AM. Considering we didn’t get home till almost 4AM – clearly he’s a morning person and I’m not.
Making monsters is Dr. Nutt’s specialty. Her best creations are the Yummy Mummy, the Boogie-Woogie Man, and her masterpiece, Dracula-la-la! who loves to sing Opera music. It’s music to Dr. Nutt’s ears, but the villagers don’t like the idea of singing vampires roaming around their town. When they storm her laboratory they are in for a pleasant surprise.
