Helmetized

Rhett

Today was the big day. The brothers got helmets. Aren't they just the cutest (and funniest) little guys you've ever seen. The O.T. said that average helmetazation lasts anywhere from 5 - 12 weeks. We're anticipating the worst and think the helmets will come off around Christmas. So far so good, only a few crying fits. Give them 3 days and they should be used to them. Our boys have to wear their helmets for 23 hours a day and visit the O.T. once a week to get the helmets adjusted. We'll post before and after photos once we're done.

Wow! I can't believe they have changed so much since I last saw them. I think I actually might be a little baby hungry. Huh?!

So do they need the helmets because they have a flat head???? Funny how they both need it.
