Pirate Nina and other cuties

You may have noticed from the photos but Nina is a bit cross eyed.  We first noticed this when she was about 4 months old and we took her to an optometrist but he said it should correct itself and if not to bring her back around two.  She is now approaching her second birthday and it was getting significantly worse so we took her to an optometrist here.  He said they should be fine and we can correct by her wearing a patch on her eyes for hopefully just a few months.  We alternate the eye every second day.  She doesn’t like having it put on but once on it no longer seems to bother he particularly.  It’s now been almost two months and they are getting a bit better so hopefully not too much longer.  I promised Jem photos a few weeks back so here they are.  She looks a bit like a pirate.  A cute one though.

Nina has become  avery affectionate little girl.  Most of the time.  Here she is giving me a really good hug.

And one for her cousin Alma.  Aren’t they the cutest.

  1. Glad the patch is helping – hope it doesn’t take much longer, but good news that she doesn’t mind it (and she does look super cute).
    Love her smile !

      • Ahhh…yes, cousins as in second cousins…I should know that, Sebas has lots of them. I was trying to think of all Hector’s kids. But wow, such blond blond hair. Cute.

        • No such thing as second cousins here, everyone is just cousins I like it. And then the children of your cousins are your nieces and nephews. I also like that. Is it the same in Guatemala??

          • Yes it is the same in Guatemala. Sebas has many aunts and uncles and cousins. I love it too and I am sad about taking him away from t hem!
