This week at the Napier's

I will get back to the Disney pics next time around, but I wanted to jot down the current happenings at the Napier household this week. It's been a full one for sure! I'll start with good news! Will got his very first ever real school report card! Yep, he has completed the first 9 weeks of school and he has done very well. He received all "M's" (in Kindergarten the grades are M- mastered, I - can't remember that one, and B - beginning. He has mastered all the skills for the first 9 weeks and only had 2 checks in the "needs to work on" category. He needs to work on "disturbing others while working" (aka talks too much) and " following directions" (aka he talks to much while the teacher is giving directions). These sound pretty negative but the teacher said he is a real pleasure to have in class and once she asks him to be quiet, he does. She also said he is one of her smartest students.
On other subjects, Halloween is coming up which  means lots of parties, hayrides and trick or treating. It also means Wyatt will be 3 years old! His birthday is Saturday and we will have another full day. We have a soccer game in the morning, hopefully go out to the "peanut place" for a birthday lunch and then trunk or treat at church that night. He'll be super excited to get to wear his costume!!
Wyatt has had a tough time these past few weeks. For about 4 weeks now he has been coughing constantly. It's mainly when he runs and gets winded (which is all the time). He'll have these little coughing fits, turn really red and I have to make him sit down to relax for a while. No other symptoms, just coughing. It gets really bad at night too. The dr gave us medicine to try for a week. That didn't help, so I took him back and he was wheezing, needed a breathing treatment and has to go back in 3 days. He has to take a breathing treatment every 4 hours (even through the night) and a steroid medicine. He does really good with the treatments but he is SOOOO hyper with all this medicine. He goes back to the dr on Wednesday so hopefully he can discontinue all this mess! He still sounds like he is breathing hard even when he's resting on the couch. It's just so pitiful to make him sit with that machine all the time. He pretends he's Darth Vader or an elephant (whichever he's in the mood for) so he doesn't mind too much.
Well, now Weston's crying, guess it's time for him to eat!
Make it a great day!

Mason had to do the breathing treatments at about 8months.. it was torture. His little mask has an elephant trunk on it but he wasn't amused by it at that age. I have also had a cough for about two weeks (not as bad as Wyatt's) but something is definitley going around. I hope he get better in time for his birthday. I can't believe he is going to be 3! Congrats Will on the M's. :)
