treatments...

we call the medicine the kids have to have in the nebulizer a "treatment." maybe everyone does, i don't know. i know i call it that because Kara (kendall's mom) calls it that and all her kids had to use this when they were little...so we call it a treatment and it makes it easy for our kids to know what we are talking about. sometimes i call it the mask medicine. they are both doing well with doing the treatments...we let them watch a movie or something while they do it. avery doesn't like the elastic strap on her mask so i hold her on my lap and hold the mask for her. it works. they are feeling better. avery still coughs a bit and sounds like she has a lot of crud in her lungs...i think i'll call the doc when our 7-10 days of treatments are over and see if he wants to see her again. but here's the kids...ethan calls it his darth vader mask sometimes:) lots of fun

I hope the kids all feel better soon! Nebulizer treatments can be tough not only on kids, but on mom and dad. It looks like you, and your little ones are doing great! Great idea to make it a Darth Vader mask!
