Here is the picture of Austin with his new glasses. He is amazed that he can see so much better now. Everything is so much more clear to him. On the way home we was reading all the signs that he couldn't before. He even says the TV looks much better now. I remeber when I got my first pair of glasses. I couldn't believe how good I could see. I didn't realize my eye sight was that bad.
If you notice by his right eye he's a little scrapped up. He was sledding down the snow hill in our front yard and I guess he used his face instead of his snow sled. Good thing he was not wearing his glasses when he did this.
Well Austin has not avoided the curse of bad eye site. Austin brought home a slip from school indicating that he failed his vision screening. I took Austin to the eye doctor yesterday and of course he needs glasses. He picked out some nice blue wired frames. He looks so cute!!! He should get his glasses in about 5 business days, so when he gets them I will post a picture. I was a little worried on how Austin would take the news of needing glasses since he complained and whined about having to wear head gear to get ready for braces (which he will get this year sometime), but he took the news well. During his eye exam his brother Chance was a little concerned for his big brother and keep asking what the doctor was doing to his eyeballs. And then when the doctor asked Austin to read the letters on the wall across the room Chance started to give the answers away. He had been learning his letters in day care and he loves to pick out letters and tell everyone the sound the letter makes and sometimes words that start with that letter. So the doctor tells Austin read those letter that you can see clearly. Chance starts shouting out "F, f says ffff B, b says bbbb V, v says vvvv" (you have to imagine the letter sounds on this one). I was hoping Austin wasn't paying attention to his little brother, and he wasn't, but it was funny regardless.
