2 weeks old

Can't believe my little guy is already 2 weeks old. The last three days have been difficult around here. On Wednesday afternoon Livi came down with yet another cold. Sneezing, runny nose, coughing (great just realized my nose is starting to run great just what mommy needs) so we've been trying our best to keep her away from her brother. Matt and I are constantly washing our hands and using tons of hand sanitizer before touching Ian. We're both hoping he doesn't catch it, but I have a feeling he will. So on top of Livi's cold, Ian has a clogged tear duct. I called his pediatrician yesterday and they told me to apply warm compresses to his eyes when they get goopy and to massage from the bridge of his nose to the corner of his eye to help get rid of the clog. I was told to call back if he had any yellow goobers. Wake up this morning whole eye crusted shut with thick yellow goo. Called his pediatrician wanted me to bring him in this afternoon to get checked out. Looks like he has a little infection in his eye, which they said was common. So for the next 5 days we have to apply ointment to his eye 3 times daily. Hopefully it will all clear up for him soon. I ran to Target while we waited for his prescription to be filled because a co-worker told me about an awesome deal on formula. I am so proud of my formula score at Target. I got 16 cans of formula for $80. We spend $13.50 on one can and that lasts us a week. Ian is set for a couple months. I bought out everything they had left. It was $9.98 for a 2 can pack. I think they were getting rid of what was left over from their bulk item sale a few months back. I checked all the expiration dates and it's good until 2012. I was so stoked about it the deal and it's going to save us a lot of money in the long run.

My awesome score of formula!
