Introducing...

....Mr. Handsome!  I'm sure you all know by now, but here is the 'official' post about Carson's new glasses.  He had been having headaches occasionally for a while, so when we took him to his 4 year check-up, they decided to check his vision.  He failed the test, but I thought maybe he just didn't understand.  I never thought he was having any problems seeing stuff...he could see stuff better than me, so it seemed.  So, they recommended we go to a ophthalmologist for a more in depth exam.  We did that a couple weeks ago and they determined that he has a bit of far-sightedness as well as astigmatism.  So, he needed glasses.  The glasses are suppose to help strengthen his brain so he can see more clearly.  Since his eyes have to adjust and his brain has to 'strengthen', it would take a while to adjust to his new glasses.  After we bought him two pair of glasses, he wouldn't wear them!  He said that he could see just fine without them.  We did our own little exam and couldn't tell any difference at all!  So, we took him back to the doctor to get them checked and they are right.  The glasses will help strengthen his eyes/brain so they will work better, but it will take a little time before he'll know any difference.  Something like that.  Anyway, after the doctor told him he needs to wear them all the time, he has been much better wearing them. We bought him two pair because they were super cheap at Wally World.  He looks so cute and handsome with them.  He thought maybe people wouldn't recognize him with them and so he said "if they don't know it's me, I'll just take them off for a minute and say it's me, Carson!"...funny kid.  So, here are some pictures of our handsome little man in his new glasses.  Now we just need to work on a more natural smile :)

He is so handsome! I'll have to show Lindsey, she'll be so excited to see her buddy in glasses just like her! It was fun they got to talk about glasses yesterday.

I especially love that first pair - he's like Clark Kent :)

Tell Carson we like his new glasses and that he looks great with them. We hope they help. His comment about people possibly not recognizing him was really cute. It did work for Clark Kent after all...we all know he looked TOTALLY different with those glasses on! ;-)
