croup

We had big plans for Annabelle's day off school....and then she woke up with croup. She had that nasty barking cough and labored breathing. No fun at all. Doctor's orders were to stay on the couch, no running around and just relax. Yeah, easier said that done for a five year old. 

She watched a movie and enjoyed some popcorn and counted down the minutes until her sister got home from preschool. 

We had to cancel a playdate with the Johnson's and when Kristen found out Annabelle was sick she rushed right over with a delicious meal for us. She made fresh bread, minestrone soup, and delicious berry muffins. Kristen is so kind and caring and such a dear friend. She is far too good to us.
