Gabriela has been taking amoxicillin for the past few days and, while giving her the medicine was never easy, it just got much harder. Apparently, she has decided that she hates it. As soon as she SEES us holding the medicine dropper she purses her lips and immediately starts spitting!!! As we get closer, she starts turning her head back and forth and putting her arms up by her face to push our hands away. Yes, OUR hands. This is a two person operation!

We never used to give the kids juice (still rarely do) so Q would DOWN her meds if I put them in an ounce of apple juice, and let her drink it while watching Baby Mozart (which is like television crack for babies)...total hypnosis. Good luck!
