A Few Months Later!

I Can't Believe How Long It's Been Since I've Sat Down And Blogged!
These Kids Are Keeping Me Busy!  To Be Honest.. I Have NO Idea Where I Left Off.. So I'm Just Going To Start!

Elias Is 14 Months Old Now!!!!  I Can't Believe How Fast The Time Goes!
He Is Doing Fantastic!  A Perfectly Normal Healthy 1 Year Old!  Suuuuure Your Typical
1 Year Old Dosn't Wear Glasses, Let Alone An Rx Of +20! But If You Ask Me, It Makes Him
Wayyyy More Special! I Sometimes Wonder What He'd Be Like If He Had Never Developed Cataracts.... Would He Have Been So Strong, Or As Sweet? Would Be Have Grown So Smart?
I Guess We'll Never Know.....   I Do Know, That He Is The Most Amazing, Strong, Charismatic Little Boy I Have Ever Met! And We Are Soo Blessed To Have Him!

As I Have Mentioned In The Past, We Switched To Glasses Full Time, When Eli Was 8 Months Old, The Astigmatism In His Right Eye Was Causing His Contact To Fit Poorly.. And His Eye Began To " Fall Behind " After Many Months Of Patching, And Glasses Full Time, I'm Glad To Say That Both Of His Eyes Are Being Used Equally, And His Vision Is Great!  ( Well You Know, Considering..... )

We Were At The Eye Dr. Earlier This Week, And We Discussed Going Back To Contacts....
Elias Has Very Poor Depth Perception, And Peripheral Vision... And The Poor Kid Trips Over Everything!!!!! The Dr. And I Both Agree That The Contacts Will Better His Vision, And Better His Mobility!  The Dr. Also Said That Elias Has Grown Out Of His Astigmatism Quite A Bit! And That The Contact Should Fit Much Better This Time!   
Of Course I'm Terrified! It's Been 7 Months Since We've Had To Deal With Them, And He's Much Bigger Now!!!!  I Can't Imaging Re-introducing A 1 Year Old To Contacts Is Going To Go Over Very Well... But My Fingers Are Crossed, In Hopes That He Takes To Them Like A Rockstar!!!!
Luck Wishing, And Good Vibes Welcome! :)
   

 
 
Elias Hayes!

  1. Isn't it cool to think that all of the fear and worry and stress of eye issues and Dr. Visits helps to mold all of us into stronger people? I have wondered too what if...but i love who Elsa is and wouldn't change her for the world. What a cute little guy you have! It will be fun to see where they all end up on this journey.
