More Chaos

Levi can keep us hopping and I had to place 2 calls to Poison Control in the last 5 days on account of him. On Tuesday, I made the mistake of feeding Jude his anti-seizure medicine in some lemonade in a sippy cup. Levi got to it before Jude and gladly sucked down half of it and then got furious at me when I took it away. Luckily, Poison Control informed me there were no side effects other than sleepiness. Given it was nighttime, I was sort of hopeful that he’d suffer from the side effect and actually sleep through the night for the first time in his life. But, no such luck.

Then, today, I left the boys’ sight for a minute and when I returned, I noticed Jude had spilled his orange Jell-O all over Levi’s new pillow pet and Levi was crying and had some mysterious substance in his mouth. Then I found a heavily drooled on airwick airfreshener that plugs into the wall on the floor by Levi. I called for back-up (Andy) and then called Poison Control. Again, thankfully, no treatment was needed other than rinsing out his mouth and giving him drinks.
