Makena started patch therapy about a month ago. She wears a pretty purple patch over her left eye to strengthen her right eye. Patch therapy is 2 hours a day, 4 times a week. In the beginning she would get very tired but now she is doing better. Our goal, the eye dr. and us, is to stop her right eye from turning in. I am hoping it works!!
Update...she had to miss a week of patch therapy while the lab redid one of her lenses to fit in the frame better. Now her lense stays in place but it caused a big set back with her eye turn. It is frusturating.

Shhhh...it's a suprise!!
I am taking this little cutie pie on a suprise princess inspired Disney day on Sunday. It is going to be all about the princess and riding the rides of her choice. It's going to be just Makena and Mommy...m's and m's! Oh, I can't wait!
Giggle time with Papa
My dad is a kid person. He loves kids and loves playing silly games...perfect for the grandchildren. The night before my parents were leaving for Michigan, I snapped these photos. Pure bliss!Sweet and Innocent...
One morning after playing hard for a while Brody asked to watch a DVD of music and singing. I put it on and went into my room to fold the clean clothes. (I like to use my bed.) Well, after 15 minutes, I realized that I hadn't heard from him. I went out to the family room and he was peacefully sleeping on the couch! "Oh, how sweet and innocent." I thought to myself. I just had to take a picture because he has never fallen asleep on the couch before. I was about to get my camera when I paused for a second and took a closer look at my sleeping boy...what is on the armrest of my couch? Look for yourself...yep, apparently, my sweet and innocent little two year was not being so innocent when he took pen and wrote all over the armrest! I started laughing and grabbed the camera. After taking the picture, I looked for the pen but never found it. Perhaps, he hid it and is just waiting to pull it out when I least expect it and begin his masterpiece again.

Future Tatoo Artist?
Look who found a pen and drew on his body...hmm..I seem to recall a little girl doing this at about the same age...
Inspiration
I was inspired to change my blog and start posting again! Perhaps it was the warm weathr that inspired me to get ready for summer and get all of my picutres on my blog so that I am all caught up. Or perhaps, I just felt like it! :) I love thecutestblogontheblock.com because it has great options for blogs. That is where I got this background and little tags. I hope you enjoy the new look!
Egg Hunt
My mom and I took Makena and Brody down to the clubhouse area for the annual egg hunt in our community! They had so much fun finding eggs. Makena's age group completed the whole hunt in about 2 minutes! One of her friend's did not get many eggs so Makena shared an egg with her. It was very sweet.

This was....umm.. yea, I don't know what type of fish but I caught it!
Dad caught a lot of these fish...sculpin is what they are called.Ang and my dad have a special bond...fishing. Each year they hop on board a boat and head out on the Pacific for a day of fishing. Now, I have been invited a time or two but have never gone until this year. I joined my dad and his cousin for a day of fishing. It was so beautiful out there and we each caught a few!

Makena and Ryan headed to her preschool for a special night of arts and crafts! She loved the one on one time with just her and Daddy. They went for ice cream afterwards and she was in heaven!
