Glasses!!
Looks like Emma got the McMahon genes when it comes to vision...she got her first pair of glasses yesterday! We had no idea she was having trouble seeing- she never said anything and never did anything (i.e. standing close to TV, etc.) to make us think she was having trouble seeing...she even passed an eye exam at our pediatricians office during her 4 year old check up. But her school did a hearing and vision screening on Monday and her vision screening was so bad (20/30 in her right eye and 20/200 in her left) that the school nurse called me!! We got her into the pediatric opthamologist as quickly as we could and sure enough her left eye had pretty much given up trying to focus and her right eye was doing all the work. The prescription they put her in intentionally under-corrects the left eye so it has to do some work and get used to focusing again. The doctor wants to see her back in 4 months and if the glasses haven't helped to get the left eye going then they'll do some patching -patch her good eye to get the bad eye used to working. Us McMahon girls have a history of bad eyes, Haley had to patch an eye when she was little, Chelsey was in glasses by the time she was 5, and Lindsy and I got them later in elementary school; so I guess we should have expected it! Emma picked out some super cute pink frames, and I have to admit I'm kind of excited about all the cute little frames she can get in the future (on the way to school this morning we talked about getting red ones to match her school uniform next year!).

Collinger
Sticky face from breakfast in the car!
We picked up Collinger on Sunday morning and she is quickly becoming a part of the family and our routine! She was a lot smaller than we expected (she's about 5lbs right now at 8 weeks) but we're happy and hoping it will mean she doesn't get any bigger than 40lbs...but I guess anything would seem small in comparison to our old 100lb labs!!
The kids were soooo excited to go get her on Sunday, and were in great moods when we loaded them in the car at 6:30am for the drive to Oklahoma City. The breader is from northern OK so Oklahoma City was half way. There were four other families that came to pick up their dog, it was so fun to see how excited everyone was.

Wishing I had my camera...
My camera has been in the shop for the past few weeks so of course we've had several weekends full of picture taking opporunities :( So there are no pics to this post, just words!!
Friday night we went to our audition for the Bass Pro commercial- it was fun for me, but probably won't take Emma to another audition as it's way too much pressure on a little kids (had to bribe her with a new pair of shoes to get her to put on outfit that I wanted her to wear- so she now owns a pair of "twinkle toes" and we danced in the dark tonight to see their full effect!) The audition also made me realize how awesome of a gig the SM commercial was!!
Saturday morning Emma had her first soccer game of the Fall season. She is playing with the same team she played with last Spring- The Hot Shots!! One of my good friends from works has a son who plays on the team too- she and her husband had a meeting Saturday so we took their son, Ben, to the game and lunch afterwards. It was a test of our car to get three carseats in the back, but we made it work and Emma and Bryan thought it was so fun to have Ben with us in the car!! We spent Saturday afternoon and evening at the SMG Kountry Karnival. It was so much fun and the kids got filled up on all sorts of carnival food!! Saturday evening we had movie night with the kids and decided to watch "Air Buddies" since our puppy will be coming home in about three weeks! Hoping the camera will be back from the shop when we get "Collinger"!!!
