Everyone seems to love the Fall. They usually love it because it brings in the holidays and because of all the awesome beauty of the outdoor colors changing before our eyes....I just like it because it means that in Oklahoma, it isn't summer anymore! June bugs are gone, the ants are slowing down (has anyone else noticed that the ants are seriously acting lethargic?!), but most importantly it isn't humid anymore!!! Levi discovered that "brooming" the leaves was much easier than raking them. It took me a while to finally get him to understand what "sweeping" was and what "brooming" was not!
Yes, that would be Hyrum with his eye completely closed shut now! He woke up like this on Sunday morning and because of him testing positive for influenza, we were afraid this was due to that. It scared us enough to make another ER visit. Did you know that you can have a viral infection as well as a bacterial? I didn't know that. I thought it was just one or the other. He has "peri-orbital cellulitis" which is like an ear infection except this infection is in the soft tissue around the eye. We lovingly call him "winky" now. These pictures were taken on Sunday and as of today, he has almost got the eye completely open now. It is still very red though and the eye itself stands out farther than the other eye now. It is the oddest looking thing.
