Jack Jack



Nora got all of her attention last weekend.
I guess Monday morning was bound to bring a little one-on-one for Jack.

We went to the eye doctor. Dr. Dan saw that Jack crossed his eyes at times during his 2 year old check-up. He encouraged us to get it checked out. We went to see a special pediatric ophthalmologist (who was wonderful... how do you check the eyes of a 2 year old?) She determined that Jack crossed his eyes to help him focus in on objects and things up close- he is farsighted. The recommended treatment- GLASSES. Me, as the mom, am not disappointed. I actually was very excited to see Jack experience the world in a more clear way (he got very excited during the exam when Thomas the Train got clearer and clearer-as she tested the lenses. It was very cute.)

He got fitted for glasses on Tuesday and they were ready today! HOORAY!

The best part of the glasses store... Tootsie Rolls!

Watching basketball at home with Daddy (Popcorn was an added bonus.)

This is Jack's favorite story book. He learned the song version in nursery at church and loves to make the animal noises as we read it together. He definitely is seeing more details and LOVED reading his books on the way home. (He is reading it backwards in the video, only because he read it forwards first.)





Moral of the story: I think Jack is going to like his new glasses!
