Dariya's new glasses

Thanks to everyone who commented and shared information with us about glasses for Dariya.  We found a great pair for her from Specs4US, which is a company that specifically makes frames for people with down syndrome.  The nose piece is down further so they fit well on her flat nasal bridge.

We have already been to have them adjusted twice since last Thursday.  Hahaha.  The sweet lady that Jason delivers to at Wal-Mart put a different kind of nose piece on for us, the continuous kind.  It seems to work much better.   She also showed us another frame that works perfectly for Dariya’s lack of nose bridge for only $50 (Nick Kids Jr for all you ds mamas that might need the info).  I know where the next pair of glasses will be coming from…
I think I need to invent a GPS for toddler glasses though.  She seems to be good at wearing them for a while then takes them off and sets them down.  They are immediately camouflaged into my carpet.  Ugh!
So without further ado...  Here is her new look!  What do you think?

Ok, just kidding these are the rock star sunglasses they got for having their eyes dilated.  Scroll down to see her real new look!

I'll definitely have to remember that if Arina ever needs glasses. Do you have a piece going behind her head to hold them on? Just curious.

You had me going for just a bit with the "wild shades". She looks very studious and cute all at the same time. Love the new look. Alayna looks pretty cute, too!
