EYE EXAM

Of course mom forgot the camera at home again so no pics. Last Monday mom had an appointment with the eye doctor to get her eyes checked for her prescription glasses. Mimi decided that she too needed to have her eyes checked. So we did just that last night at Costco optometry. At first the doc suggested that I take Mimi to a kiddie eye doctor because her office does not have all of the kiddie decorations and such. That was until I explained that Mimi will do just fine. Just like I said, Mimi came through like a little trooper. Our Mimi loves going to the doctor, dentist and eye doctor. Go figure!

Although I know that Mimi's eyes are in good shape, I have her go for an exam anyway just so that she will get used to it and not be afraid of any doctor or dentist.

The optometrist says that her eyes are straight, and that she is able to focus well but she is just a bit farsighted at this point in her life. The doctor says that it is quite normal for a child of 6 to be little farsighted and that it should straighten itself out as she gets older.

While at Costco we also had dinner, did some shopping, then went back for ice cream desert. While eating our ice cream we saw Caitlyn and Conner from our neighborhood. They were there with their mom Amber. Mimi loves to play with Caitlyn and Conner at the park. Their backyard leads right into the park so they are there about 90% of the time. Caitlyn who is 9 years old is 200% tomboy just like Mimi and Conner is 7 years old and is all boy. They all get along just swell at the park.
