Barrett's New Glasses

(click on the collage to make it bigger and see each picture in detail)

We we picked up Barrett's glasses yesterday, he didn't want anything to do with them! The most he left them on all day was about 15 seconds. That all changed once Mike got home. He excitedly told Barrett he was going to take his contacts out and put on his glasses. Suddenly Barrett wanted to wear his glasses! He put them on and left them on until bedtime! This morning he woke up and wanted to put them on! Yay!! We took them off of him for a while today because they were rubbing behind his ears. I think it'll take a little time before he can get used to wearing them all day (mainly because of the ears). We put some Vaseline behind his ears and that seemed to help this evening. In one of the pictures above you can see how the glasses wrap around his ears to keep them from falling off. That doesn't, however, always keep them in position. Sometimes they'll slide down to "reading glasses" level (proof in one of the pictures above). It makes me laugh! I think you'll have to admit that he looks pretty cute in the glasses.

I agree--he looks cute with his glasses. When he sees his dad and Steve wearing glasses, he will like them.
