Glasses???

I thought this picture of Jack is hilarious. He is actually posing for Mommy!!



Well, I took Alice to the eye doctor for the first time on Saturday and she has the Conkle curse. Of all the things that I wanted her to inherit from Ron (good eyesite) and she doesn't. Oh well, it's not exactly poor eyesite that she has but a crossed eye. At first I was sad, because those of us who wear glasses know how much of a pain it is to wear glasses and/or contacts but this may be for the short term. I noticed about a month ago that her eye was going in when she was watching tv or reading a book or focusing on something. Well, the doctor said it was pretty common in kids her age and that since we've found it early it is very fixable!! She should be getting her specs by next week and of course, I will post her cutie patootie (sp?) face.



Also, Jack went in for his 1 year appt and he is doing very well. He is now a whopping 24 lbs and 30 1/2 inches (big boy) but the doctor did say he is starting to aline with other 1 year olds (he is not off the charts any longer-just in the 99.9 percentile!!

It is hard to imagine anything could be wrong with our children, they're so perfect! At least you caught her eye problem early and she'll look so cute in specs! What a cutie Jack is! Can't wait to see everyone!

Beautiful kids! And while glasses might be a pain, you just have to be thankful it's something so minor. I'm sure she'll be a cutie in them.
