Glasses!


This picture was supposed to be last, but I have uploaded three times and cannot get it where I want it! Anyway, the kiddos have been enjoying our pool very much. I must admit swimming is much less relaxing/enjoyable as a mother than it was as a kid! But it is a great energy outlet for them, and gives them good exercise. Anna and Timon are both little fishes, and Timon seems to spend 75% of his time UNDER water! He is often seen diving to the bottom of the 8ft to retrieve a pair of goggles that sunk down.






Since Ann asked, the big news in our family is our two oldest getting glasses! They both got their first pair within the last two weeks. They are amazed at how different things look!.... I'm so glad for them that they can see clearly now, even though they didn't no any different before and thought the world they saw was normal.



Here's an updated snapshot off all four....Jesse, Alice, Anna, Timon. Actually pretty amazing to get Alice to sit still on Anna's lap AND smile for a picture!

Loved seeing the pictures - you're kids are so cute. They look very cute in their glasses, also. I remember well being able to see "the leaves on the trees" when I walked out of the dr's office the first time with my new glasses. Looks like you're having a good summer. Enjoy.

Thanks for posting the pictures. They are so cute and it is fun to see the kids in their new glasses.

I remember that day of really seeing well also. Haven't been without glasses or contacts a day since then, and that was in 4th grade. Fortunately both my kids got their dad's eyes - none of them has ever needed glasses (other than reading ones for Mike now that he's getting "older").

Great pics - thanks for posting them.

Great pictures. Isn't the pool great for the kids? We love ours. It's great exercise for the kids, gives them a place to enjoy their friends, and it's a good stress release for the adults too!

Regarding the pictures, I've found the easiest way to move them is to upload then click on the picture. Right click and "cut" the picture. Scroll down to where you want the picture. Click there, then right click and "paste" the picture where you wanted it.
