Tatum's a little Under the Weather...

Tatum got sick on us over the weekend. She ate fine, played fine, acted fine, but looked pretty bad. Her eyes were so crusty with goo. Antonio told me she had pink eye, but I wasn't as convinced because it was in both eyes and she wasn't rubbing them. So, Monday morning I took her BACK to the dr(we were there 2 weeks ago and we left finding out she had double ear infections). This time the dr. said she has a cold in her eyes, so we left with eye drops that must be given 3 times a day. I asked the dr. how in the world was I supposed to get Tatum to let me give her these eye drops and he said it would be easier with Mommy AND Daddy giving them. She has been doing pretty well with the drops. She fights us on them, but we do get them in and they are helping. Anyway, here are some pictures from Sunday night that I took before she got her drops. (She has the wash cloth because I had just cleaned her eyes off a little bit and then she wanted to play with it.)

Poor Tatum. It's always so hard on everyone when the little one is sick.

Is two-weeks ago the first time she's had ear infections?

Robynn-Tatum has had 2 double ear infections now. They were about 3 months apart though. The dr. says we are not in the ballpark yet of talking about tubes. Hopefully we will stay OUT of that ballpark!

Addyson just got over this JUNK too!! She HATES her drops as well! Hope Tatum is feeling better!

I hope Tatum gets to feeling better! If it does happen that she has to have tubes, they aren't bad at all. Parker was like a completely different child once he got them at 8 months. They stayed in for almost 3 years, too.
