Girls day

Wednesday, Presley had an eye appointment in Ft. Worth to make sure her vision is good.  Because she was born w/ such a low birth weight (2 lb 11oz) it is protocol to go to a retina specialist once release from the hospital.  Well she did and did great.  He wanted her to have her eyes checked by a pediatric eye doctor at a year.  So me and Presley left the boys to fend for themselves and headed to Lewisville on Tuesday.  We went to out to eat w/ my parents and brother at On The Border.   Presley seemed to enjoy the individual attention.  I left her w/ my parents and went to paint with some of my friends from high school.  

On my way to paint I talked to Keith to see how they were surviving.  First thing he told me...  " I heard the boys giggling but didn't think anything of it (during their nap time).  When I went to get them after they woke up I picked Ashton up and he was naked!  He had taken his diaper off and had peed everywhere.  I should of checked on them when they were giggling."  Haha  greatness.

He then told me that he put the tent up in the living room and they played in it.  Then he took it outside and put them in it.  They apparently didn't want any part of that tent...they wanted on the grass.  Because it was wet he decided to just bring them in.  After that "they fell apart."

Wednesday we went to the eye doctor which took FOREVER!  They had to dilate her eyes and wait 30 minutes and then  it took the doctor a while to get to us.  We made it.  The doctor said the health of her eyes look great.  She did say that she will probably need glasses at some point because she is slightly near sided.

We left the doctor and headed back to Wichita Falls.  We stopped in Bowie and went through the McDonalds drive through for lunch.  I asked the lady there if she knew of any good parks.  She said "Do you want safe or good equipment?"  I said "both"  I think she sent me to the safe one b/c it did not have good equipment (not like we needed it).  So we ate in the park and I let Presley swing and walk around for a bit.  Then we were back on the road.

We finally got home.  I am not sure if the boys or Presley noticed that they weren't there but when they saw her...they tackled her! The boys seemed to be happy we were home and I think Presley was happy to be home as well.

It was nice to have one child for 2 days...but wouldn't trade it for the world.
