No crossed-eyes here
Despite her left eye looking crossed, the specialist we took her to yesterday said that it is not! We were pretty surprised. He just said that she has a large bridge (distance between her eyes) so it appears that it crosses. When I asked him if it would get better, he said, "Most kids grow into their faces." Not sure how I feel about that. I am hoping she will. It's funny, I get so nervous that my kids will get made fun of. I should be glad that nothing is wrong! She is so sweet and such a patient baby. We love her.
A few highlights over the past week:
Here is Ethan's 'chillaxing' as we call it. He does this a lot. When we change his diaper he puts his hand behind his ear. So cute.
Syd decided that her toes were too tempting. Maybe she was bored of her fingers (mostly the thumb) that are always in her mouth, but she went for the big toe. I couldn't get my camera fast enough and caught a photo just after she backed away. Blast.
Believe it or not, Ethan has only taken just a few bites of avocado in this photo. It's mostly all over his face and clothes. The bad news? We found out avocado is staining their clothes. I have turned into the clean face and hands nazi.
We spent the weekend in Island Park, Idaho with my sisters and their families. We had such a good time that we didn't take a single photo. I will be borrowing some from my brother-in-law Chris so I can post a bit of our trip. The babies did fairly well on the drive. I think they screamed for about 2 hrs of what turned into an 8 hr drive each way. The drive is normally 5.5 or 6 hrs. We stopped to feed them 3 times on the way up and 2 times on the way home. They were troopers. They loved their cousins. I think Ethan loved the attention and Sydney was overwhelmed - she wanted to go to sleep most of the day. She's so funny.

Thanks for sharing the "eye doctor" experience with me. They are such good babies, and seem to grow a little and change a lot every time I see them. Being a grandma is the best ever!

They're getting so big! So cute!
You know Ethan has a large bridge too and his eyes don't look like that. Kind of weird. I guess you'll have to wait and see what happens. Have you checked out my blog and seen my newest granddaughter - so fun!
It was so great to see you four this past weekend. The really late nights are so fun. No one ever wants to miss out on the conversations. Wacky 6 is addicting. Those babies of yours are so cute fun. Thanks for traveling up here. Love you.
