The past few days have been a little hetic for us here. Russ has been to the ER twice due to an eye infection. We went to the ER saturday morning because Russ's eye had been progressively getting bigger through the week. We got to the ER at 8am and Russ got right in to see the doctor. So Ethan and I waited in the ER for Russ. That was a very long 3 hours. Ethan was HORRIBLE! He would not sit in the chair with me, he wanted to go find daddy, and when other kids were there he would try and go play with them. Finally at 11am the doctor pulled me and Ethan in to talk about Russ. The doctor said that he had a skin infection, that was on the outside of his eye. He said there was 2 kinds of infection, one that is on the outside of the eye, and one that is on the inside. The doctor said it was good this was the one on the outside because its much more easy to treat. So he gave Russ an antibiotic shot in his arm, which Russ said hurt REALLY bad, and sent him home with some meds. The doctor said that Russ would need to come back in the morning to have it looked at one more time. So this morning Russ went. Well It was hurting a lot more today, and it was ozzing a little bit of puss. (ewwww) So the doctor ordered a cat scan and put an IV in Russ. Ethan and I showed up after the cat scan, and I took some pictures while we were there. Ethan was worried for his daddy. He asked him "you hurt daddy?" "you okay?"... Russ told him he was hurt, so Ethan wanted to sit with him in the bed. lol. So there are some pictures of Ethan with Russ.

You can see a little bit of his puffy eye.

Russ got some drugs that made him feel good. lol. Here is the IV. Ethan called it "daddys owwie"
He liked laying on the bed with daddy!
The doctor said that the cat scan was negative (not having the infection inside the eye) so he released Russ! :) as of right now his eye is still big, but it should go down!
Poor Russ :( I hope he's feeling better now. That's cute how Ethan was laying on the bed with him
