Hope everyone had fun today! A reminder and some tips regarding daylight saving time ending on Sunday. A one-hour time change might not seem like a big deal, but it can cause sleep issues that make for a lot of cranky kids (and adults!). Have a great weekend everyone!

Acetaminophen, which is sold under many brand names, including Tylenol, is an over-the-counter medication used to relieve pain and reduce fevers. Decades of research have found that acetaminophen is safe for children when taken correctly. Please ask us if you have any questions or concerns. And have a great weekend everyone!
