Doctors

Eddie's fingernail has been infected for over a month now. We ended up giving him a course of antibiotics.  Unfortunately, his fingernail finally detached and fell off on Thursday. The doctor prescribed another course of antibiotics, and we'll keep it covered with a bandaid until it grows back, which will probably take 4 months.

Eddie also visited the eye doctor (Owl Optometry) last week for his first vision checkup. He did very well, and the optometrist says his vision seems great. Eddie was impressed with the selection of toys in the waiting room, and with the Valentines chocolates he got afterward (which said "Owl be your valentine".)

Yesterday, Eddie went to the dentist's for his first checkup and cleaning. He did very well there, too! The dentist gave him candy-flavored flossers and candy-flavored mouthwash (what the heck, dentist?) which he is pretty excited about.

  2. The reason he did so well at the dentist's was because they had a screen on the ceiling playing the minions movie. He wore sunglasses to fend off the bright lights and totally zoned out.
