Caution: 2 Year Old on Steroids

Along with Morgan's ear infection, the Urgent Care doctor told us that Morgan had quite a bit of wheezing with her latest cold. So, he put her on some steroids (18 mg of Prednisone) and albuterol treatments.

The kid went from a zombie to a hyper-active, bounce off the walls, deliberately disobeying monster. Thirty minutes after her steroids this morning, she ran over, grabbed the Kleenex box, looked at me, giggled, and then proceeded to pull them out of the box - handful by handful.

As I head across the room - she quickly averted my gasp and ran into the living room. As I rounded the corner behind her, I caught her trying to strangle her brother.

I understand she's on steroids and I should cut her some slack...thank goodness it's only for 5 days...

Hey, isn't that how profession athletes on steroids act? Maybe you could take advantage of all this energy. Are there any toddler races for money?

Thanks for your comment on my blog. I think I may go the separate blog route soon.

My twins are two, also, and hey have a very active four year old brother to teach them a lot of really cool tricks that often involve mischief of some sort. They are always fighting, pushing, pulling, wrestling each other. Sometimes I swear it is WWE at my house. And steroids isn't the excuse. I think my house is overpopulated with testosterone...
