What a day.....Yesterday.

Yesterday was quite the day. I had a great day at school and then, well, then, it started to go downhill a bit.
Jim and I took Audrey to her ocularist appt. We hadn't seen him in about 3 months. This is the first time I met the new guy. He was a very nice gentleman and I could tell a difference in Audrey. She was scared, but not terrified like with the guy in Oakland and this guy is only 10 minutes from our house (compared to an hour).
I held Audrey's head while the doc tried to get out the conformers. He got the right one out just fine, but had trouble with the left one and still could not get it out. (he couldn't get it 3 months ago either). He tried 3 times and I think I was holding her head for about 45 minutes total out of the hour and a half we were there. He said that the opening in the left eye is smaller, so it makes it harder to get the conformer out. He doesn't have the same tool as the other guy, so he plans on designing a newer one in the next couple of months. He said he should be able to get that one out the next time we are there. He said he will take new impressions the next time also. I'm assuming he will design one himself that he will be able to get out then with no problem.
An exciting piece of news is that he feels she is going to be ready for the painted eyeballs in the next 6-12 months so he told us to start thinking of what color we would like for eyes for our little girl. I told Jim, BLUE coz we both have blue eyes. I'm sure that is the color we will get, but we have to decide what color of blue exactly! GOD is great.....we're so excited to be at this point!
We got Audrey Strawberry ice cream afterwards and then came home. When we have an afternoon like that, we are ready to just rest and relax because it takes so much out of all of us. Needless to say, Audrey, Jim, and I slept pretty good last night!
