Would you like to make a new generation next round?: Sure
Your son is born with a disability. What kind? What do you do?James, Jacob, Kate, Adam, and Josh are thrilled to announce the arrival of their baby brother, Grant Joseph! Grant came into the world weighing 7 pounds, 8 ounces; 19 1/2 inches long, and is an absolute bundle of joy. He does seem to be developing a slight strabismus (crossing of the eyes), and so we've been taking him to an opthalmologist in order to take care of the problem as early on as possible. For the moment, we've decided to wait and see if the problem corrects itself over time. If it does not, then we'll go the route of patching his stronger eye to strengthen the weaker one, and as a last resort, turn to surgery for correction (if necessary).The boys are absolutely thrilled to have another brother, and as always, they look forward to the day they can all play sports in the backyard. Kate, on the other hand, was thoroughly disappointed at first when her little brother arrived. She was so hoping for a baby sister, since she is so outnumbered and still the only girl. When she held him for the first time, though, her eyes just lit up and she has taken on such a sweet relationship with him. She truly is a wonderful big sister who enjoys helping out in every way possible, and Grant loves to be held by her. I know a part of her wishes that we'd try for another baby, but John and I are fairly certain our family is complete with six wonderful kids.
