Glasses

We got the call yesterday morning that Gabrielle's glasses were done.  Gab and I were just getting over a nasty cold and she wasn't in the best mood this morning.  I decided to drag her out on a couple of errands and then to the eye doctor to get her glasses.  We sat in the chair and she just amazed me when the man put her glasses on.  She left them on her face and just started walking around the doctors office completely content.  All of the staff were just amazed....they said most two year olds or young kids scream and rip the glasses off immediately.  She did so well! 

Once we got home she took them off a couple of times, but I think she realized that she couldn't see so she let me put them on and she was just so happy.  We went outside, watched Bubble Guppies, and ate lunch and she was just so darn happy the whole time with her glasses on.  She got so excited about her glasses she went on this ramble "Show daddy!  Show Jojo, Papa Ron, Billie, Papa Paul!!!"

She started wanting to take them off around dinner time last night, but still did pretty well.  She wasn't thrilled about wearing them this morning, but she is getting the hang of it and basically wears them all waking hours.  I always take  her pony tails/bows out before her naps, so today before she went down she said "pony out, glasses off!".  She's getting it!

And I never wrote down her two years stats from the doctor.  She's catching back up a bit on her weight, so she's back to her 20th percentile spot which is good.  Everything was pretty good! 
All of her speaking, motor, and problem solving skills were at or above par. The only thing she could use some work on was her fine motor skills......however since she was practically blind, I'm pretty impressed with the fine motor skills she had! Haha!

Weight (with wet diaper) - 24 lbs 7 oz (21st percentile)
Height - 33 inches (28th percentile)
Head was still large and in charge

She also got her first pet for her birthday!  My friend Danielle got her a fish!  He's a red beta fish, but I'm not sure how long he'll be around.  He doesn't swim very much and usually doesn't eat his food.....so we'll see.  We might be on to fish #2 soon :/
