Or some Hana Montana Tattoos? Each one helps the medicine go down. Poor little Sydney, she has a nasty infection and this is her 4th antibiotic, since they found out that this bug is resistant to the other ones she had taken. Her new medicine, which has to be taken twice a day for two weeks is the worst tasting stuff I have ever encountered! It is a combination of paint thinner and Kaopectate. I felt so bad for her and my mom suggested making a medicine jar and allowing her to choose a prize from the jar each time she has to take the nasty stuff. So, now to my delight she begs to take the icky medicine, so she can choose a treat. What a difference a day makes. Yesterday she threw up breakfast and her medicine--now she is holding her nose and swallowing like a champ. A little motivation goes a long way---Thanks MOM!!!

We love you cute Sydney, hope you feel better.
Is she not the cutest? Zane is so marrying her.
Amy!! That is a brilliant idea. We use that at the hospital and it doesn't hurt to throw in the word "shots" and show them the needle. just kidding. Sydney is adorable even when she is sick!
So I started a blog so I could post. What a good reason eh? Thanks for the good idea, I know I will need it. Any good tricks on getting a 10 month old to take a nasty antibiotic? Do you call Sydney Mini me because she looks just like ya? And she must get her sass from you to?!
