Saul Update

My poor shorty has bacterial conjunctivitis in both eyes, two ear infections, and a minor sinus infection.

Remarkably, our only clue was the goopy eyes, because he hasn't been particularly fussy or anything. He is very possibly the easiest, best tempered child in the entire universe.

Anyway, he's got some nasty eye drops and a round of antibiotics to get through now. This is his first illness requiring medicine. I have been told that I should temporarily switch to disposable diapers because copious amounts of liquid poo are in our future.

Lovely. I think for every minute of sweet, precious, snugly baby time, there are five to ten minutes of smelly, gooey bodily fluids. But somehow, that one minute is, without questions, totally worth it.
