Conjuncti....what?!?

Last week Brady woke up with his eyes completely crusted over. I took him to the doctors and they said he had a cold and it went to his eyes. The doctor told me he had conjunctivitis and that she would give me a prescription for an antibiotic ointment that I would need to apply twice a day for 7 days. Now, if you haven't met Brady, then this may seem like a relatively easy task. He's little - just pry his eye open and squirt it in. NOT SO EASY. The day after Brady was born the nurse brought him into us and said that during the night Brady got into a boxing match with the doctor and Brady won! We thought it was cute, we laughed and lovingly looked at our baby! But age has only increased the strength and speed of his fists of furry. He certainly loves his hands but when he is mad, he gets them going at quite a shocking speed for such a little man. Everytime I got the ointment near him, the little fists starting going. Needless to say, last week was not our finest! Here's how he and mom spent most of it:
