The Funny Things They Say and Do

Quote From: vadsbro

I'm a nanny for 18-months old twins and they can be the cutest :)
The girl has a really bad cold right now and just hates the medicine, her brother loves it and tries to get it as often as possible. :) Anyhow, I was going to give the medicine to the girl and as always there was kicking and screaming  and a lot of fighting so I decided to hold her down in a "spider"-grip (my husband is a pediatrician-nurse and showed me a easy way to hold a child and give medicine quick). While I was trying to get in a good possition I noticed that her kicking stoped so I turned my head and there is her brother holding down her feet and he looks at me and says "Ok???? Good???" I looked at him and said "yeah, hmmm, thanks". Everytime his sister is getting her meds he will come running and help :) :) It's the cutest :) :) :) :)
 I used to have the same problem with my daughter.  Up until yesterday, she had to have medicine every eight hours, and it was ROUGH for the first few months.  Then, when she was about six months old, I got the medicine ready, and picked her up.  Next thing I know, she's grabbing the syringe, and saying "num-num" and trying to give it to herself.  It was adorable. :)
