Friday March 30

We are supposed to start patching Elsie's eye again.
The eye doctor think it will work better for than the eye drops would, at least for what she wants Elsie's eye to do.
BUT....Elsie does not like the patches!!!
Well.....we should have started doing this several weeks ago....but haven't had any luck....
Until Dad asked if he could wear one with her.
She was excited about it at first....but then got unsure.
But once Dad had it on his eye, she was willing to do it, but on her glasses, not her face.
Works for me.
It was adorable.
She was so excited to be twinners with dad.
Her Dad is her Hero.
Not sure if that is even a big enough word.
Her Dad is her world.
It is just the sweetest thing.

Hopefully she will be excited to do it again tomorrow.....and every day after that :)

We finally switched out our ugly front kitchen window.
This is the first thing I wanted to do when we walked through the house after we had bought it.
But it wasn't really a necessity.....and not really a big deal.
We did replace it once....but it turned out to be a tinted window and it looked bad.....
So we took it out, and put the one with the broken seal back in.
And it stayed that way until today.
I am super excited.
It is so pretty :)
And it lets in so much more light....which I love.

So what do you do with a big glass window that needs to be thrown out?
You get the BB gun out :)
The kids thought it was pretty fun.

Brent and I got to have a date night tonight.
I am feeling pretty stuffed up still and Brent wasn't feeling 100% either.
The kids all seemed fine.
We had the date planned and a babysitter set, so we stuck to the plan.
It was fun to get out anyway.
We got invited by some friends in the ward.
We went to Ono's, which is a Hawaiian grill place.
It was yummy!
 (On a side note, Brent actually put out a fire in the back dumpster and roof of Ono's last night, kinda crazy, right????)
It was fun to get to know them better.

Our three yer old has to wear an eye patch for several hours each day too! The best trick we've found is to bribe her with candy, which I know isn't the best thing, but it works! We have a treat bag and she gets to pick something out of it when she puts her patch on. Good luck with Elsie! It can be so hard to get children to understand things like that.
