The Chicken Pops

F, my 4yo, has the chicken pox, or chicken pops as he calls them.

L, who is 6, had them two weeks ago. Mel had the shot and got two little pox on her tummy and that was it.
I would just like to state that benadryl is a miracle drug. I'm not convinced it really stops itching or runny noses or anything else, but it does bring blissful slumber, and is so much more legal than forcing them to drink bourbon.

Silly girl, the bourbon is for you! LOL

I feel the same way about Nyquil. I pour it into the little measuring cup and tell them to have a shot ;-)

Chicken pops ... I love it! Too cute! Don't you just love the names kids use for things? :)

I feel cheated. Mia gets all antsy and hyper when she takes benadryl.
