The Patch is Back

Well, Chloe's sporting her favorite accessory again. While it kind of stinks having to put it on and keep it on every day (we're back to 4 hours a day) we're not terribly shocked. We saw signs that she was favoring her right eye quite a bit.

The difficulty of getting the patch back on lies in the fact that Chloe was spoiled for a month and her independent spirit has only grown since we stopped using the patch. She's a little bit more feisty now and these things aren't conducive to easy patching. I've had to remove her patch-prying little fingers several times in the past couple of days. But I think she'll get used to it quickly enough. Her Mama has a strong will, too. ;-)

Chloe's getting better at crawling up on all fours and sitting herself up. In the following pictures she's showing off her new skills (even with the patch) :-)

Wahoo!! Lookin' good! Whenever Crew most assertively displays his stubborn/fiesty side, I chant in my head "his strong will kept him alive. His strong will kept him alive..." It helps... sometimes, LOL!

I know nothing about this kind of stuff. Do you patch her good or bad eye?

Meredith - We put the patch over her good eye. This forces her to use her bad eye and sort of exercises it to make it stronger. :-)
