Since right after Christmas, Luke has been fighting illnesses left & right. It started with a sinus infection that led to a terrible cough. So, off to the doctor we went. His only previous 2 visits had been his 2-year & 3-year checkups, so we were due. After a round of antibiotics, things were looking good. Until 2 weekends later when we ran through a bout with the stomach flu. That was not pretty & the carpet in Brandon's office will likely never be the same! We made it through that one and thought surely we'd seen enough for awhile. It was not to be. Last Sunday night, Luke came upstairs and when he looked at me, his right eye was bright red. I thought, "Oh no - now we have pink eye!" When he woke up the next morning, it had all cleared out, so we kind of took the wait and see route. When he woke up from his nap, it was red again, so we called the doctor's office. It turned out, he had an ear infection that had backed up into his eye. Yuck! So, off we were to the pharmacy for another round of antibiotics. Well, take a look at some pictures to see how that turned out for Luke: 
Poor Grandma & Grandpa Jackson were taking care of Luke when he started breaking out yesterday. They tried calling us last night while we were out bowling with friends, but neither of us looked at the cell phone to check to see if anyone called us (usually no one does!). We got the message around 11:30 last night & worried through the night about him. After talking to a nurse and his doctor this morning, we are pretty sure he has a Penicillin allergy, though, he wasn't affected by the first round for the sinus infection. This one was a little different from that and apparently not a good choice for Luke! He is itchy and uncomfortable, but hopefully, that will pass soon. We have another trip to the doctor in store for us tomorrow. We're praying that this might be the last one for awhile.
