I was at Lake Belton all last week fishing the BASS Federation State Championship. It was the first time I have been away from Dylan for more than a weekend. It is amazing to see how much he changed and how much more he was talking.
Dylan and Jody did come down on Wednesday and Thursday to watch weigh-in so I got to see them then. That was nice in the middle of some pretty miserable fishing.
Dylan has been sick since I got home Friday night and it seemed to be allergies, but Sunday his eyes were looking pretty bad and filling with goop. A trip to the doctor confirmed our fear, Dylan has Pink Eye. He is not even in school and he seems to pick up something once a month or so already.
With Pink Eye has come a baby that is not sleeping much, is very grouchy, and throws some pretty big fits. Dylan has always been the best medicine taker. That apparently ends with eye drops. It is quite amuzing, I am sure, to see Jody and I sitting in the floor holding him down, prying his eyes open to put 3 drops in each eye. The even funnier picture is Jody doing it when I was at work today. From her account, she had him on the floor and was kneeling over him, holding his flapping arms to his side with her legs and trying to get the drops in his eyes while his head was spinning about. It is quite the event.

Did it look like you were tying up a goat?
Just the other day, i took Brody to the doctor for an ear infection.
After 15 minutes of holding him down with two other nurses, they pwashed a pea size ball of wax out of his ear. Poor kid. First time i felt embarrassed.
