Simon had his first eye doctor appointment this morning. Illinois has a great program for a free eye check for kids between six months and a year. He has perfect vision and even had his little pupils dilated to make sure the eyeballs are completely healthy. They are! We talked about our upcoming trip to Arizona and the doctor recommended sunglasses. Actually, she recommends them for here as well. 80 percent of eye damage leading to cataracts and macular degeneration happens before the age of 18! So we got Simon some Baby-bans. He isn't a huge fan, he would much rather eat them, but we will try to get him used to them in the next week before vacation. They have an elastic strap around his head to hold them on and are a fun color. Arizona here we come!
Absolutely positively the sweetest baby in the world. And now the coolest too!
