It has been a wild couple of days around the Lehrmann house. On Sunday night we came in from playing outside & noticed some gunk around Grace's right eye. Sure enough it turned out to be pink eye. It spread rather quickly to her other eye and soon they were both nasty & pink. Darren took her to the doc on Monday morning (I stayed home with Luke so we would pick up as few doctor's office germs as possible) and got some eye drops. She stayed home from school both Monday & today. She has enjoyed the time off, but it ready to get back to school & her friends! I have been a lysol/hand sanitizer/chlorox wipes nazi around here. I want to try and prevent the rest of us, especially Luke, from getting it!!
I thought that would be the end of our colored eyes, but little did I know that today Luke would get his very first black eye!! It isn't as bad as I thought it would be, but it is still there. Right now it is a lovely shade of blue, purple, & red! He was watching Yo Gabba Gabba on Nickelodeon this morning. The characters were dancing around and he was up & dancing right along. He got a little carried away and was trying to recover from some sort of spin move when he found his little rocking chair with his right eye!! Ouch!!! Boy, did the tears fall. He was content to sit in my lap for the rest of the show. Poor little guy!! On our weekly trip to Walmart this afternoon he found a "Brobee" stuffed animal and I just had to get it for him. Brobee is his favorite character from Yo Gabba Gabba and I figured it was a good way to commemorate his first black eye!

I am hoping this is the end of the excitement in our house for the week!
We've had pink eye a couple of times. Not fun. Lots of eye drops. Poor little buddy getting a black eye. Isn't it pitiful when they get hurt and are crying and you can't just take their pain away?! I hope everyone's eyes are better soon. :)
