And the survey says...








The pair that we bought? Well, it actually is choice #6, none of these (but only because I didn't take a photo of the frames we finally settled on!). However, they look very similar to the Disney frames. So, for all of you who voted for the round Disney frames--we agree!

So, Matthew had the glasses for not even a full day when they got broken. Sure glad we bought the extended warranty! Matthew had set his glasses on the floor of the playroom (no, no, no!) and Analiese stepped on them! Yes, we had many tears. Matthew, because he lied and tried to say that Analiese pulled the glasses off of his face and then stepped on them and then Analiese because she vehemently denied breaking them that way (but accepting that she did indeed step on them).

We finally got through to the truth and Matthew was sent to his room for lying and for not taking care of his glasses. He is also working off the cost of having the glasses repaired. Hopefully Matthew will take better care of them now.

As you can see the frames also came with some cool, clip on (with magnets) sun glasses. He loves those and wears them as much as I will allow him. The other night he did a magic show and had on his sunglasses. He couldn't see a thing but boy did he look good!

From what we can tell Matthew's vision seems to be better. He doesn't sit as close to the TV but as for other things we haven't heard many comments. We'll see on the follow up appointment.

Grace is doing better. She has some pain from the incisions. We make sure to cover her belly button with a cotton ball and a ball. This morning she woke up and the cotton ball was missing--maybe it worked! She hasn't started complaining of not being able to swim or do other activities so that tells me she is still not feeling herself. We'll see on Monday what happens when gymnastics class starts. I've told her she can dress and sit with her class but she cannot participate. She is fine with that today....

I have just one week left of vacation. As usual the summer just flew by. It was a great break. I enjoyed the kids, the pool, the movies, the beach, our trip to Michigan and not having to run from school to dance to doing errands. But, that fun is just around the corner!
