'Tis the season...


...for bandaids!

Along with the warm shorts weather and outside fun, come the scrapes and bruises. Elliott and Ollie both have lots- we're going through bandaids like crazy! I think we counted 12 separate "owies" on Ollie from head to toe. No wonder I'm having a hard time feeling sympathetic. It's a consoling job for me every minute it seems like! My new saying is "Jump up, you're okay!" :)

I'm so with you. Not too much sympathy from me. A bandaid, a kiss and they're off.

Band Aids are Magical...They make everything all better! You bumped into the chair? Oh you'd better get a band aid! Someone looked at you funny? Oh you'd better get a band aid! =)
I keep mine in a drawer where the kids have free access to them!
Another magic trick is Tums...Sounds crazy, but if any of the kids are throwing a fit or are really upset, I usually ask them if they feel sick and of course they say yes because it's always an attention thing, so I offer them a Tums and tell them it is medicine that makes us feel happy and healthy and then Presto, they are all better and happy after they eat a berry flavored Tums =)

That is so funny! It seems no matter where I hide the bandaids, Dawson finds them. He puts them on him self. I am in the same boat as you, we go through bandaids like there is no tomorrow! Very cute picutures.
