Tall and Skinny

So after 3 well visits and 3 flu mists, we officially have 3 tall (90% - Ashlyn, 75% for Josh and Caleb) and skinny (50% for Ashlyn and Josh, 40% for Caleb) kids. We have also always thought Caleb is our mini-John and we found yesterday he might be looking even more like him after we go see a pediatric optometrist. It seems Caleb might be farsighted and may need glasses...we'll keep ya posted. John actually started wearing glasses at 3 so we were worried about that with Ashlyn and Joshua. Now that it has left my mind of worry, it seems Caleb might be the child who takes after his cousin Rylee and dad. Either way, I am very glad we do well checks for this very reason...I would have never thought he might have a problem and it will be good to double check with the specialist...most vision correction problems in children are better if caught by age 7 (as in Rylee's problem where she wore a patch for a couple years to correct a lazy eye caught at age 3). We'll keep ya posted...
