"D'you know the human head weighs 8lbs?"

Logans appointment with the eye doctor was this morning & in an effort to remain positive and smiling about everything I present to you the following picture:It's the adorable kid from Jerry Maguire :) Everyone loved this little guy and I think him & Logan look a little alike. But in a week there will be an uncanny resemblance

We just got Logan fitted for glasses :/ Little, itty bitty, expensive, baby eyeglasses.

We were at the doctors for 2hrs this morning :o After various tests it was determined that its not just Logans left eye that is lazy but both and he alternates which eye he uses instead of using them both simultaneously. He also has a mild Astigmatism in his right eye and is slightly near sighted - the latter two things aren't as big of a concern as him only using one eye at a time. Mrrr.

The solution: We'll try glasses for a couple months to see if they help him learn how to use his eyes together and strengthen them - it's not a guarantee it will work but we're giving it a go in hopes it does. As of right now the other option presented to us was surgery....

Glasses will be ready for our pick up in about a week.
Next Tuesday he has his Birth to 3 evaluation.

Woe is us.
