Glasses
Patch and Stools


I know it has been forever since I have posted. McKinley is starting to get used to her glasses and eye patch. We had to go buy bandage eye patches because she kept cheating with the felt one. She would pull her glasses down and look sideways out the patch. Now she likes the patch because there are 5 different patterns to choose from so it's fun to pick a new one every day. I'm hoping she can quit wearing it in about 3 more weeks. That is when we get her re-evaluated. Wish us luck!!
The pictures I have posted are of my new yard sale find! I have started yard saleing and I think I'm getting addicted. It is sooo awesome to find a treasure you have been wanting or looking for and only have to pay a small price for it! I found these awesome bar stools and it only cost me $5 for all three of them!! Awesome! I have wanted stools for a long time now but never wanted to spend the money for them. My kids LOVE them too! They eat every meal on them. They also like to sit on them and help us or watch us cook. What a great find!!

Eye Doctor Appointment
Today we spent 3 hours at the eye doctor. I noticed about 2 or 3 months ago that Kinley's right eye wonders a little bit. So today we finally went to the eye doctor. Kinley was AWESOME! She did really good until they put drops in to dilate her eyes. One of the attached pics is her dilated eyes. They are totally black.
When they were checking her eyes I wanted to cry. I had to cover her left eye (the good eye) with my hand while they tested the right eye. She would move her head all around and say she could not see the object they were showing her. I seriously thought there for a minute that she was blind in that eye.
After more testing it was determined that she is EXTREMELY far sighted. As objects move closer to her face she cannot see them and her eye starts to wonder. This is called "Lazy Eye". She has most likely had vision problems since infancy. Seriously, am I that bad of a Mother? I didn't even notice until she was 3.
Next week McKinley will have to start wearing her glasses with a patch on the left eye to strengthen her right eye. I feel so sad that we have to cover her beautiful face and eyes with glasses. The eye patch is really cute and will eventually be removed but she will be in glasses the rest of her life.
I couldn't resist attaching a picture of her in her sexy grandma shades. She hated wearing those things and was begging to go home so she could take them off. Next week I will post more pics of her in her new glasses. McKinley I love you with all my heart. You are an amazing kid that I can learn a lot from. Thank you for being such a good girl to your Mom and Dad!! We Love, LoVe, LOVE you!!!

Father's Day dose of reality
Poor Jeremy got a Father's Day dose of reality this year. On Mother's Day I like to take the day off. I sleep for hours and let Jeremy take care of everything. He gets to cook, change the diapers, clean up the messes and give the baths. This Father's Day poor Jeremy did not get the same luxury.
The day started with an early morning at the church to set up chairs. Then he returned home to help me get the kids ready. Both the kids were dresses they just needed shoes. Oh but wait...of course Ty needed a diaper change. He always waits till he has a fresh diaper on to poop. So Jeremy is changing Ty and the kid decided to pee all over the place, luckily he did not get Jeremy just all over himself. So it was a quick change for Ty then off to church.
The rest of the day was good. We got to eat some super yummy fish for lunch. The only downfall to that was the nasty smell in our house for days.
Round about 5 o'clock things changes. Kinley was eating dinner and had WAY to much in her mouth. Bring on the gagging followed by the throw up. Daddy had to clean her up while I cleaned the floor.
Later poor Ty had another problem. The boy is teething and has nasty diapers. You know the kind you can't really smell til you open them and then they smell like death. No one knew until he started crying and prancing around that he was poopy. I took him straight to the tub. His bum was burned so bad he wouldn't even sit down in the water. Jeremy had to come help me hold him so I could get him cleaned and medicated. Poor kids.
So sweet dose of reality. Got to deal with poop, pee and throw up on Father's Day. Daddy's never get a break!!
