Baby's First Goopie

Poor little Victor had a goopie eye yesterday! He was fine most of the day, then in the afternoon I put him up to my shoulder for a minute, and when he came back down there was goopie all over his left eye! There was no redness and only a little bit of swelling of the eyelid, and I think I was more bothered by it than Victor was. The baby book said to keep an eye on it (har) and call the pediatrician if it lasts more than 24 hours. So we kept wiping it, and gave Victor a bath when Damian came home after his class. (Adorable non-naked bathtime pictures to come!) He had some goo at his 5 a.m. feeding, but not as much as I was expecting, and there was only a little bit in each corner of the eye at his 9 a.m. feeding, and now there is pretty much none! Yay! First goopie successfully overcome (so far) and no call to the pediatrician needed, hooray! There is plenty of time for that later, I'm sure!
