Pink Eye

We had our first experience with Pink Eye last week. Parker started showing signs of this yucky infection on the 10th and I just thought maybe it was allergies or an eye cold. It progressively got worse and then started oozing. I took him to the doctor and she did confirm that it was Pink Eye. Parker stayed home from school on Thursday and was very bummed that he would be missing class. I was bummed that I wouldn't get time to myself while he was at school. We kept the hand sanitizer wherever we went and tried really hard to not spread it to others. But on Friday I noticed Paxten's eyes were getting a little red and starting to have green eye boogers, so I called the Dr. back and got a prescription for him as well. (why don't they just send home a family prescription for those types of things, do they really want us bringing in all our sick kids one at a time to get others sick!) So after 7 days on antibiotics we are Pink Eye Free....now I just need to get rid of this nasty cold I got in the meantime. URGH!!!
