Addicted Much!?!

I couldn't help myself. Ryan and I aren't entirely certain where Cooper's love for Motrin came about. Yes, we give him Motrin, not like it's candy but just when he's clearly running a high fever. We noticed it seemed to work a bit better than Tylenol and it seems to work quite well when he's teething. So, a few months ago, we noticed he actually ASKED for Motrin from time to time. Because it's ridiculously expensive, I find myself using my finger to get the last droplets out of the measuring cup and letting Cooper lick my finger (this non-waste thing is all thanks to my mother). Cooper is clearly popping out a tooth again soon and we know this because of A) his fever and B) how he says 'ow' when we hit a certain spot while brushing his teeth... it turns out it's NOT rocket science. Anyway, tonight, I gave him some Motrin before bed so he could possibly sleep without the fever and this is what I caught him doing...

PS, I don't know why we can't put the video in the blog anymore... tears.

That is funny! He is just trying to get every last bit possible.
I think every kid does this. Marissa did it for a while and kept asking for her medicine, which was tylenol. I only gave it to her when she was sick, but even when she wasn't she would still do it. But that video was awesome. Too bad you can't add it to your blog.
