Halloween and Caden’s Getting Glasses!

Posted by admin on Monday Nov 3, 2008 Under Adessa, Caden, Coburn Kids, Genevieve

Halloween was so fun!  And for some reasons the pictures I took on my camera have mysteriously disappeared.  Bummer. But I do have individual pics of all the kids so I’ll post those below.  We went trick-or-treating around the neighborhood with our little cousin Ethan.  It was kind of funny because we had 8 adults walking around 4 kids. It was fun to see their excitement over everything.

We also had Caden’s eye appointment today. The good news is that he doesn’t have Strabismus and doesn’t look like any evidence of lazy eye.  The funny news is that he does have to get glasses! He’s very near-sighted, it wasn’t that surprising.  So Daniel and I had to go eyeglass shopping for him today and I do have to say, his cuteness factor has increased significantly! Babies look so cute in glasses.  He’ll get the glasses at the end of this week so I’ll be sure to post pics.  His blood vessels in his eye are straightening out a bit too much, they like to see them a little lax, but the blood vessels in his left eye are a bit too tight.  It’s just something to keep an eye on, as the blood vessels tightening like this are a risk factor for retinal detachment and can really affect his vision.  We have a follow-up appointment in 3months again, so sometime around Feburary just to see how his vision is doing!

    I Love the pictures. Caden makes a very cute vampire. :) How fun is that to have the same OT? We love Becca, she’s done so many good things to help Samantha move along. When we met her in January of this year Samantha couldn’t even make herself sit up and now she’s running, and eating!! It was a fun carnival, though it would’ve been fun to see you in person. We’ll have to do better at timing that in the future. :)
