My little 4 - I mean 8 EYES!

As you can see now both the Twins are proud new owners of - yes that's right - GLASSES! Drew got his glasses about a little over a month ago and Blakely just got hers this week. When we went to the doctor for there 4 year old check up they stated that both kids eyes needed to be checked. Drew's needed to be checked right away but Blakely could wait. So of course as soon as we left the doctor's office I called and got Drew an appointment. At the appointment we found out that he REALLY can't see and glasses were a must. His eyes were different and they were quite concerned about that. So he got the glasses and he had to wear them for a month and then go back and see how it did. If it did good then just keep wearing the glasses and come back in 3 months, if bad then he was going to have to wear a patch but thankfully when we went his eyes had evened out so the glasses were working. He is doing great with them. He keeps them on and he doesn't really bother him. I think he realizes he can see much better. Now Blakely - she was borderline but we took her to be checked anyway and they said glasses were in order for her to. She doesn't have to have them all the time but more to see at a distance but we of course are not going to tell her that or we may never get her to wear them. So we will see how she does. She just got them yesterday and took them on and off about a million times so this may be fun! I think they both looks just so cute with them on but it makes them look so grown up. Well - we go back in 3 months so we will see how it goes. I am really glad we caught this now before they got in school. Whatever they have wrong with there eyes is due to prematurity and could possible correct itself over time.

On a side note - Maya had her 9 month old check up today and she is doing so good. She did have a little ear infection and some sinus issues going on but besides that she is growing and thriving. She was a little over 19 lbs. She had to get a flu shot as well so that didn't make her a happy camper but all in all everything is going well with her. She started the nursery and seems to be liking that except she is a little nosy thing and doesn't want to nap for the fear of missing something. We love our Miss Maya and our counting down to the official adoption day September 29th.
