Weekend Activities

I thought I posted this last night. Guess I fell asleep sooner than I thought...

Friday Judah's eye was draining liquid. Then it started swelling. Then it was draining puss. It was disgusting. His doctor said they couldn't fit him in on Friday, but they really wanted me to get him checked so they told me to take him to urgent care that day. So I called urgent care at 4. They said be there at 5 for paperwork and his appointment would be at 5:20. At 5:19 the nurse was coming in to check my baby. His temp and weight were fine (he was 4 pounds 15 ounces) so we waited for the doctor to check his eye out. When the doctor touched his eye to look in it, grossness came out so he ran to get swabs to do a culture. He decided it was an infection so we have drops for his eyes now and they'll call us with the culture results tomorrow to make sure these drops are going to get the job done. We were out of there with the prescription by 6. It was a delightful experience. Poor Judah is now confined to mittens because he sticks his fingers in his eyes constantly and that's probably how they got infected. 

Saturday morning we went to our house inspection! We go to closing on June 30. We're so excited. The inspection went well. We get the full report by Wednesday, but the inspector didn't find anything major wrong with the house. The inspection took almost 3 hours, and the dude was thorough as heck. MrC was following him around talking his ear off the entire time. I got tired after the first 2 rooms and kept sitting down not paying attention. I just need to wash the house down to get rid of their germs and grime and the house is move in ready. 

I want to have a "Life is Sweet" dessert party for people to come see the house and see Judah, but I don't know how quickly we'll be able to do that. The house needs some landscaping. I don't think I'm ready to actually plant anything, but if we pull up the weeds and add some fertilizer, then I think we'll be ready for guests. I apologize if this post isn't coherent, I'm quite tired, but I'm too busy watching the game and folks have been over here visiting all day so I haven't slept. Judah should be waking up in a minute so after this next nursing session I'm going to go to bed.

Oh, poor baby! Happy to hear that you have the drops. Good luck with the mittens...I learned the hard way when Nasir dug his finger into his eye. Judah was a preemie too, right?
