.....Walking in a Dairy wonderland

Today we went to "Cows on the Concourse" an event at the Madison Farmers' Market, where they bring in real cows, and a bunch of stuff to teach kids about dairy products. We saw a real cow stomach and these gross stones that form in cows' stomachs.

Caleb loved the cows. he can say 'cow'. Martin did not like the cows, but he did like playing the games to learn about dairy products. He won a rubber eraser cow, a whistle, and a colorign book. All 3 kids also got free t shirts. We bought everyone ice cream from the wisconsin dairy association. It was a fun outing.

Caleb loves his medicine


Caleb has been on an antibiotic for an ear infection. He loves amoxycillin, so giving him his medicine is pretty easy. One day he was mad, so he poured his medicine on the floor. I was about to give him more medicine, when Caleb flopped onto the floor and licked it all up. He ate all of it. It is an antibiotic, so maybe that counteracted the germs from the kitchen floor. Anyways, the medicine is kept in he fridge. Also in the fridge was half a loaf of bread that I had baked the day before. Caleb got the fridge open, and somehow opened the childproof cap, and poured the medicine all over the loaf of bread. Then he ran into the living room and happily ate his amoxycillin bread. It was the last day for his antibiotic, so I didn't bother getting a refill.
It was really cute.
