EYE see you!

Today Girlie had to go to the eye doctor to get her eye checked. At her 4 year old appointment she failed the vision test in the right eye and her pediatrician said that it looked a little cloudy like a cataract. She wanted to send us to a specialist and so we went today.


Turns out it is a cataract. It's small and the dr. said something that she's likely had since birth. No surgery yet though, so that's good news. We are just going to patch her good eye (LEFT) and hope that the right one gets better. It's lazy right now because it can't see as well and we hope that patching will help gain strength back in it. Please say a prayer that patching helps and we don't have to do surgery now. The eye dr. said that it was great of our pedi to catch the cataract so well without the use of her "fancy equipment". I'm so blessed to have such a great pediatrician.

Of course while we were there I snapped some pics! My baby is way too young to go through these tests but she honestly didn't seem to mind! The staff was so great and I loved the Dr.


With her "Drew Carey" glasses. They had several pair of cute glasses, I just got a kick outta these.




Being so big



They had to dilate her eyes so she got these rockin' sunglasses too! So cute!



I'll have more of our one-eyed pirate patched up later!

Still accepting prayers!
