My Baby's Eyes Are Sensitive Light
My daughter has an extreme sensitivity to light. This concerns me a great deal. It is difficult for her to be outside and enjoy the nice weather because the sunshine hurts her eyes. I bought her some pretty snazzy sunglasses which she hates to wear, but I make her wear them anyway. The sunglasses don't always offer the perfect protection because the light still bothers her even with her sunglasses. Kaylynn has been to the eye doctor two times. Although her eye doctor shows sincere concern for her situation, he can't give me a clear diagnosis of her problem. It is very difficult to take pictures because bright flashes hurt her eyes. I am wandering if other mothers are experiencing this problem with their babies, and googling to find answers. So if you found this blog by googling "My baby's eyes are sensitive to light.", please feel free to leave a comment.

Happy Seven Months!
Tuesday Toot
It's Tuesday again! Time for mamas around the Blogamama Community to toot their own horn about accomplishments they made this past week. My accomplishments are not monumental by any means, but I did get several small (yet extremely) important tasks accomplished this week. First I paid for my online courses and bought books. Second, I picked up my daughter's birth certificate from the courthouse. Lastly (and most importantly), I went to the dentist to have my teeth cleaned! Yep, these are my little trival yet important tasks that I completed this past week! It sure feels good to cross off those tasks from my to-do list!

Kaylynn Can Sit Up!
Last night (around 11pm) Kaylynn sat up for the very first time by herself! The little stinker was not tired so we lounged in bed together. We had so much fun playing in bed! Since she has been feeling better she is back to "I don't need no sleep." routine. I am so glad to have my happy baby back!

Cool Baby
You won't be seeing many pictures of my precious girl without her sunglasses (unless the eye doctor tells me otherwise). Kaylynn is just soooooo sensitive to light! It was a rather cloudy day in Sweet Home, Indiana and Kaylynn's grandpa took her outside for a few minutes. It was long enough to make her eyes watery and red. I guess this girl has very sensitive eyes, so she will be sporting these glasses every time we walk outdoors. So, what do ya think? Cute, I know!

Update On Kaylynn
I am happy to announce that the eye drops are working! Kaylynn is feeling much better! The light still bothers her, but she is getting her personality back! Although the doctor did not give me a diagnosis on Kaylynn, I believe she has some form of iritis, an inflamed iris. He prescribed steroid eye drops which is a treatment for this condition. At this point in time we don't know what caused her condition. She could be genetically predisposed to iritis or perhaps it is an allergic reaction. I am just relieved to see that she is getting better. Nothing breaks my heart more than to see my little darling in pain. Kaylynn has another eye appointment on Monday.
