Eva's Eyes

I took Eva to see her new pediatric ophthalmologist yesterday. He specializes in Strabismus, and came highly recommended by her last doctor back in San Diego.  Her appointment was at 10am, but we didn't get home until 2pm.  First I got a little lost finding the place, because half the streets on my MapQuest printout were closed for construction.  After I got there, two different technicians saw Eva before they decided to dilate her eyes for the doctor.  They sent us down to the cafeteria to eat lunch while waiting for the drops to work, and when we got back she was seen a third time, this time by the doctor.  He's pleased with her progress (all her medical records had been transferred to him), and says unless we start noticing a dramatic increase in her eyes crossing, he doesn't need to see her for another six months.  That's good news!  I got lost again trying to find a route around the construction to get home, but thankfully the girls slept the whole way.  Have I ever mentioned how much I hate one-way streets?  Usually they're on a grid so even strangers can find their way around, but these twist and turn and constantly change names, so they're frustratingly confusing.  I even stopped at a gas station to ask for directions, but the guy didn't know what to tell me with the streets blocked off.  I've never been tempted to get a GPS map for my car, until now!
