Finally! We have reached the stage where we actually smile back at mommy and daddy. Somehow this little feat means so much. It makes the 2am diaper change and feeding more enjoyable when you get one of these open mouth, squinty eyed grins staring up at you from the changing table. Smile on little Quentin, smile on!
We have been seeing a pediatric opthamologist about Q's left eye. He has a condition know as congenital ptosis of the eye. Essentially the eyelid muscle is not strong enough to lift the lid completely up off the eye. Fortunately his vision has not been affected due to the fact that the lid can be lifted out of the way of the pupil. For right now we are going to wait and see if the lid strengthens with time. If it still has not corrected itself we will look into surgery to repair the lid, but not until he is 3 or 4 years old.
