Sorry I havent done very many posts lately. I guess there isnt too much to blog about these days. But here are a few cute pics I have taken of Lukas recently. Also, here is an update on his eyes: We went to the Dr. today and his eyes are still improving but he still wants to try to get a little bit more improvement before surgery. So yes, we are STILL doing the patch and glasses. I feel so bad for him. He does pretty good once the patch is on but he is starting to fight me alittle bit when I try to put it on. He will says things like "Not today" or "Please no." And it just breaks my little heart. He is such a good kid though. And we had to get some eyedrops today that dialate his eyes and we have to put them in his eyes everynight before bed for a week. I am not sure I quite understand the purpose but it is something like since he looks over his glasses alot, this will help him depend more on them. (Something like that.) And we just put them in his eyes and he cried and I felt so bad. I wanted to cry too. But after a few tears, he was ok. So we will check again in a week and go from there. He said it could be as soon as next month that we do the surgery but we will just have to wait and see. I just hope this is worth it! (I know it will.) I just keep thinking: He is two! You cant expect him to be ok with doing all this. But.... he has done really well. I think it is harder on me. I wish I could make it go away but then I keep thinking that he could have something alot worse so I should just be thankful that he is healthy. I guess I will update again about this when we hear more.

What a good mom you are. I think he's a lit less likely to remember it at this age, so better now than later. He'll do great.
Lukas is a trooper. It is all worth it and things will work out. I am sure it is harder on you then it is on him. It's hard to watch your kids go through things when there's not much you can do. Hang in there. Maybe you can tell him that when it is all over he can come see his cousins!!!
It will all be worth it in the end and in the long run of things this will be a short time. I am sure it is hard and I can see how that is hard on you. It would break my heart to do those things too. It is hard to see your kids hurt and go through these kinds of things. Hang in there, it will work out in the end.
Yep, he really is a trooper. You are lucky that he is such a good natured little boy. It will all be worth it!
Nothing breaks my heart more than a child being sick or tears of true sadness. You are a trooper too for keeping up with the treatments!
