Drum Roll Please...

Introducing the new Branna Rose!





As many of you know, in November Branna was diagnosed with strabismus. Because of that and her farsightedness, the doctor felt that glasses would be the best to help correct her vision. Right now, her left eye turns in turns when she is straining to see something and when she is tired.
So far, Branna has been very good about keeping the glasses on, considering she's just 20 months old. She's had the glasses for a day now and we've had our battles, but I think as she gets more accustomed to wearing them and realizes that she can see better with them on, she'll prefer to have them on.
Our next appointment is in February where Branna will have her vision re-evaluated and prescription possibly changed.

Are You Ready For Some Football?

This post is a little late in coming, but the pictures were too good not to post...
This fall, my brother played youth football with the YMCA in Eldorado. We were able to make his last home game at the end of October. Branna was fascinated with all the festivities of the game: the clapping cheerleaders, the cheering crowd, and the running football boys.
At the end of the game, we got to go out onto the field, where Branna was personally escorted by Uncle Jess. After wrapping up at the football field, Grandma Honey took us to the pumpkin patch where Branna was able to pick out a pumpkin to take home! She loved running from pumpkin to pumpkin and seeing which one was small enough for her to pick up! :)

I think I'll take this one...


FYI... the pumpkin was plastic :)
