Healthy Eyes and Teeth!

Landon has had a busy day of doctor appointments. We began at the eye doctor. We went on the recommendation from his GI specialist. Honestly, it seemed to us that he was seeing just fine. He points things out, both near and far, and is super coordinated. 

They started by attempting to get pictures of his eyes. He was a bit timid at first. He actually tightly squeezed his eyes shut, which is what he does a lot of times when he is unsure about a situation. He and I walked away and had a little chat about the importance of letting the doctor see how healthy his eyes were. I also promised him lunch at Chipotle if he would please do what they asked of him. Nothing wrong with a little bit of bribery, right?! We went back to try again and he was a complete ROCK STAR! He even let them put drops in to dilate his eyes in order to get the proper prescription. Proud Mommy moment!

I was very surprised to find out that he has astigmatism in BOTH eyes! I'm blaming his Father, who has crazy bad vision. Actually, we both wear glasses so this probably shouldn't have been quite so shocking. We will be picking out glasses this week. 

My 3 year old. Wearing glasses. *sigh*

After leaving the eye doc, we headed straight over to see the dentist. He was a little Champ there too! He opened his mouth big and wide. He even let them polish and floss his teeth! He left there with a very good report and instructions to come back in 6 months. All that brushing and preparing him really paid off!
