...of the yucky pink eye. I noticed, earlier in the day, that Adelyn had a big eye booger in her eye. I thought nothing of it and picked it out. I picked one out later in the afternoon and, also, thought nothing of it. Then Eric told me he had done the same earlier. Things started clicking into place and I looked for a red eye. She still didn't have one but when I checked again in a couple hours it was definitely turning pink and the goop was starting to swim. Pink eye. Sweet. I ended up taking her to the Urgent Care because it came on so suddenly and I wanted it under control. While we were waiting Adelyn alternated between thinking it was hilarious and being horrified her "eye was green!" I had just wiped her eye before the doctor came in and so he was initially thinking it wasn't that bad. Even though I informed him I had just wiped it out.. Then he pulled her lid back and said "Oh. I guess it is worse than I thought." He did prescribe her some drops...that cost me 60 bucks. Ugh.
Poor baby. She healed quickly and there was no spreading of germs. Hand wash, hand wash, hand wash!!!
