The Fourth Child

Allison has been a welcome addition to our family and has transitioned pretty easily into the chaos of our family life. The kids still argue over who gets to hold her. She defends herself by sleeping.


Her ptosis is pretty evident here.

Preston and I agree that she doesn't really look like any of the other kids. She's also skinny, which is unusual.




Preston says holding her is like this is like a never ending hug.

This is a common (and frightening) sight.
She loves her paci and is starting to smile a lot, although my attempts at obtaining photographic proof were not very fruitful.

Cute! We need to Skype so we can see her in real life!

I agree she has a different look than the others. I had to look up ptosis. We should skype so I can see her, but also so I can see you.

I want to skype too! But Brian set the computer to sleep all the time so it's only awake when the kids are playing computer games. Is Allison going to have surgery for her ptosis? Did you know that Allison was on our name list?

No, but I also didn't know Emily was on your name list. Dr. is just watching her eye for now. The muscle may strengthen on its own.
