Busy month...

Where to even start...this month has been crazy busy.
First off, my mom first noticed Jackson's eyes were a little off a couple months ago but I didn't know what she was talking about. Well a few weeks later I started to notice and then it got progressively worse the next couple weeks so of course we took him in.

We went to Arizona Pediatric Eye Specialists and learned that he has accomodative estropia. Basically he is far sided so he can't see things very good up close. He tries to focus his eyes to see things more clearly and one eye would turn inward.

We got his some glasses and he has to wear and an eye patch for 1 hour a day to strengthen the weaker eye that tends to turn in

We got a cool eye patch that goes onto his glasses but he would rather look like a pirate for an hour a day. :)


Bye bye Bob's car...

Other news...Bob got in a pretty bad car accident almost 3 weeks ago. Someone ran a red light and crashed right into him. His car is obviously totaled, but he is doing alright. He had some bruising from the seat belt but that cleared up. His knee and neck are still pretty sore and he has had a headache now for almost a week so he started seeing a chiropractor this week.


Car searching hasn't been too fun. He loved his Altima so we decided we would just look for another one. We actually just found a great deal in Utah so Bob's awesome dad is driving is up today and spending tomorrow with us and then flying home. Pretty crazy we bought a car we have never seen before!


Getting ready for Christmas

We have been crazy busy with the holidays and loving every minute of it!!! We made Gingerbread houses with some friends.




Swimming lessons

There was a great swimming lesson deal on Groupon so I bought it for Jackson and he is LOVING being back in the water again for a month. And Brynlee loves the free suckers...





Random Pics















Brynlee got her first baby a few weeks ago and they are inseparable

Poor Jackson - crazy he has to have glasses but at least he can be a cool pirate every day, ironic how he just had a pirate party too ;-)
