Our Little Boogers

Sharing our lives: two kids, two full-time jobs, one old house, and plenty of love and laughter. And baseball.

It may have killed the radio star...

... but videos make giving breathing treatments a lot easier! Every time the little dude gets a cold it settles in his chest and we have to give him breathing treatments. These involve pinning him down and waving the nebulizer thing in his face while he screams and thrashes. It's so awful that I don't think we've ever made it through a whole treatment. Last night, though, I played Sesame Street videos on YouTube and he happily sat through an entire treatment. (Those links are to our favorites.)
 Not only was it wonderful last night, it worked again today!

  4. Jude is obsessed with Sesame Street videos on You Tube, too! His two absolute favorites are Elmo's song and Elmo's ducks. We bought some DVD's for him for Christmas thinking that would be better because they are more than 3 minutes long, but he much prefers the you tube songs.
