check up a the eye doctor

Matt's Coloboma

 Matt as a congenital birth defect and we get it looked at by a specialist every 6 months. this is a really good picture of his coloboma. 

Getting ready to go "see i brush my teeth!"

His eye appointments we make a "day" out of them and we get dressed up nice since we don't have to get undressed like for our milk/soy allergy specialist. 

the check up went as expected Matt SEEMS to be looking through both eyes, although we cant test clarity of vision until hes about 3 years old. the specialist worries about detached retina and bleeding at the scar site. i say scar but its not like an injury scar. the spot at the bottom of his pupil shows on the inside all the way to the back and it looks like an incision scar.

I just don't know....

After the appointment we went to the Mall. I found some connectors to do a project so we can stream movies from the Wii into the other room on netflix. Daddy said it wouldn't work.  he doesn't know me very well does he? and Matt watched the carousel.  as you can see,  hes till a bit put off by the carousel. he walked all the way around it on the outside of the gate and all the way around the inside of the gate before deciding that he wanted to get on.  after getting on he did his "lets get this thing moving" routine. ONE revolution before he went into total meltdown. BUT he tried. after he got off he watched another family ride it. and he so wanted to get on it. he stood and waved every time the family came around. maybe in 6 months....
